tribal casino

Sovereign nation gaming

A tribal casino is a gambling establishment operated by a Native American tribe on reservation land.

Because tribes hold sovereign status, these casinos operate under tribal and federal law rather than state gambling regulations, allowing them in states that otherwise prohibit casinos.

The tribal casino brought jobs to the reservation but also controversy about its impact on the community.
