Indian casinos are built on tribal lands and officially recognized by the United States and the Federal law. They are allowed to execute absolutely normal gambling operations similar to the rest of the casinos. There is one difference though, the immunity to direct federal regulations. That is due to the recognized tribal sovereignty and self-governance.
