I'm going off the Native Americans in the U.S. They got hit for cheap tabacco products and then pushed for more sovereignty rights and started making profits through the gaming industry.

I've seen reservations that went from extreme poverty (even with all the cash the U.S. Government was pumping in) to building their own communities up with gaming money.

I wonder if they also re-negotiated their leasing deals with the U.S. Government???
