Mandan-Hidatsa-Arikara Nation

The Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation, also known as Mandan-Hidatsa-Arikara or the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation, are a coalition of three North Dakota tribes sharing a single tribal government. The Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara people have separate languages and tribal identities, but joined together in the late 1800's.
