Navajo Nation government

The Navajo Nation government is a sovereign tribal government that administers the Navajo people's affairs in parts of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. It operates like a democratic system with three main branches: the Navajo Nation Council (legislative), the Office of the President and Vice President (executive), and the Navajo Nation Supreme Court (judicial). The Council creates laws, the President enforces them, and the courts interpret them. The government manages land, education, health, and cultural preservation for the Navajo people, aiming to protect their sovereignty and promote community well-being within the framework of federal and tribal laws.
