Seminole Tribe of Florida

The Seminole Tribe of Florida is a Native American group originally from the southeastern United States. Known for their rich culture and history, the Seminoles played significant roles in early American conflicts, particularly in the Seminole Wars against U.S. forces. Today, they are recognized for their successful businesses, including casinos and tourism ventures, which contribute to their economic independence. The tribe also actively preserves its traditions, language, and crafts. The Seminole Tribe is unique in that it never signed a peace treaty with the U.S., maintaining a distinct identity and sovereignty over their lands.
