Navajo Nation
Diné
The Navajo Nation is a sovereign Tribal Nation whose lands extend across parts of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. Diné language, community-based chapters, and a modern three-branch government are central to its public life.
Homelands, government, and contemporary presence
Historical homelands
Diné history is rooted in the Colorado Plateau and adjoining Southwest. Diné communities maintain enduring relationships with lands now within Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado.
Government
A three-branch government with executive, legislative, and judicial institutions, reorganized in its modern form in 1991. Local government is organized through 110 chapters.
Contemporary presence
Window Rock houses national institutions, while local chapters serve communities across the Southwest. Diné Bizaad received official-language status under 2024 legislation; a 2025 executive order addressed implementation.
Chapters are local communities represented within the Nation's governmental system.
The modern three-branch structure dates to the 1991 reorganization.
The Nation enacted official-language legislation in December 2024 and issued an implementation order in January 2025.
