After the Navajo returned from internment at Bosque Redondo, the Bureau of Indian Affairs arranged agents to act as providers of essential services. However, since there was no official entity for the BIA to recognize, the tribal council formed in order to conduct business with the federal government.

The Navajo Nation today has over 300,000 enrolled members with a land base of 27,000 square miles (the size of Holland and Belgium combined) in the middle of their traditional four sacred mountains. The majority of the Navajo speak the Navajo language. The Navajo religion is alive and well. The Navajo Nation has newspaper, radio, a tribal college, Navajo language schools, police, courts an elected government and many tribal enterprises. They have the largest irrigated farm in the US producing Navajo Pride brand products. In short, the Navajo Nation is well positioned to succeed in the 21st century.
