Indigenous Peoples of the United States Reservations

Reservations are land set aside by the United States or individual states for use as American Indian home lands. Some reservations are for one individual tribe or band, and some reservations are shared by two or more tribes. There are 310 reservations in the United States and about 550 recognized tribes, so not every tribe has a reservation. A few tribes have more than one reservation. The largest is the Navajo Nation Reservation consisting of a significant portion of several counties in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. Some reservations are on tiny pieces of land not much more than a acre surrounded by large urban areas. Uneven
