They belong to more than five hundred Indian tribes ?部落?. Many tribe members live on reservations. These are areas that the United States government set up for native tribes that had lost their lands to European settlers. Some reservations are larger than American states. The Bureau of Indian Affairs supervises these territories. Tribes on reservations have limited self-rule.

Some of the improvement has come from expansion of the American Indian gambling industry. Many Indian tribes have legalized gambling on their reservations.
