3001 et seq.). Like other Americans, many Native Americans have disagreements over casino games. Some tribes are too geographically isolated to make a casino a success, while others don`t want non-Indians on their land. Although casino gambling was controversial, it proved to be a commercial success for most tribes, and the impact of Native American gambling proved to be considerable.
