An arguable point of law but in the great scheme of things a small recompense for the loss of the whole of North America to white settlers with guns.
Indian's believe (incorrectly) that they own the land known as the reservation, and that they are separate nations so they have a right to run their nation as they want. This of course is false as the US Government owns the land and holds it in trust for the tribe and, all tribes must become a "state" under the United States as part of the BIA recognition process. So, the USA passed the "Indian Gaming Regulatory Act" 25 USC 2701, to allow tribes to operate casino's and the like.
First, Federal law does not really apply to Indian Reservations (they are by definition, separate nations). Second, Indians do not enforce their moral laws on the conduct of another (that does not directly interfere with the rights of another, or cause harm) like American's do. Third, Casino's are good ways to make money and help the tribes.
In the 1860s American Indians were put on reservations because whites wanted the land the the Indians had been given previously. In general reservations were on land no one wanted. Then if it became valuable it was often taken away.
American Indians primarily reside in various regions across the United States, with many living on or near tribal reservations. These reservations are often located in states such as Arizona, New Mexico, South Dakota, and Alaska, among others. Additionally, many American Indians live in urban areas, having moved from reservations to cities while maintaining their cultural ties. On a map, one can identify these regions by looking for designated reservation lands and areas with significant Native American populations.
They live on reservations. Reservations are places where the Indians now live, because the government kicked them off.
When their land was taken away, many American Indians were sent to live on reservations, which were designated areas of land set aside by the U.S. government. These reservations were often located in remote or less desirable areas, primarily in the West, such as parts of present-day Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Montana. The establishment of reservations was part of a broader policy of displacement and assimilation that aimed to control and limit the movement and cultural practices of Native American tribes.
