Native American casinos have become significant economic engines for many Indigenous tribes across the United States. Established under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988, these casinos allow tribes to operate gaming facilities on their sovereign lands. The revenue generated supports tribal governments, community services, and cultural preservation efforts. While they provide financial independence and job opportunities, the rise of Native American casinos has also sparked discussions about gambling's social impacts and the balance between economic development and cultural integrity. Overall, they represent a complex intersection of tradition, sovereignty, and modern economic challenges.
