Under U.S. legal principles, federal Native American reservations have a specific jurisdictional framework. Tribal nations retain inherent sovereign authority over their members on reservation land, and federal law also applies as the overarching federal system governs tribal-federal relations. State laws generally do not extend full jurisdiction over tribal members on the reservation without specific federal authorization.
