The Cherokee Nation was the largest of the Indian Nations in the late Twentieth Century. They’ve spent most of their history trying to remove all White Man influence though, which has caused no end of controversy. They started as the most racially diverse of the Indian Nations but have gone through successive revocations of citizenship to those with “too much non Cherokee blood” over the centuries. They are now proud to say that they are the most racially pure Indian Nation on the American continent, and recognize none of the other Cherokee Nations as real Indians. But they are still happy to take foreign money in their casinos. I do not understand them at all.
