Any of these tribes could be the next Monaco, which was also in disrepair for centuries
The first step is recognizing the 500+ individual semi-autonomous cultures instead of an amorphous "indigenous peoples"
The next step is releasing maps that show tribal lands as distinct administrative districts, just like Monaco, San Marino, Andorra etc in Europe, but as any other state in the US
They have all autonomy to have their own courts and distinct systems of governance, and the federal government barely leverages its enforcement powers over any of them
Navajo Nation spans 3 states and you need a special map to see it, all while the laws there are completely different including their own business formation statutes. Doesn't make sense this has gone on so long.
