Mohegan Indian Tribe

The Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut is a federally recognized tribe and sovereign tribal nation of Mohegan people (pronounced ). Their reservation is the Mohegan Indian Reservation, located on the Thames River in Uncasville, Connecticut.
Mohegan's independence as a sovereign nation has been documented by treaties and laws for over 350 years, such as the Treaty of Hartford secured by their Sachem (Chief) Uncas after his cooperation and victory with the English in the Pequot War (1637-1638). Although the Treaty of Hartford established English recognition of the tribe's sovereignty in 1638, after the colonial period and loss of lands, the tribe struggled to maintain recognition of its identity. It gained recognition by the Federal government of the United States in 1994.
The same year the US Congress passed the ''Mohegan Nation (Connecticut) Land Claim Settlement Act.''〔 The US authorized the cleaned-up United Nuclear site for use as Mohegan reservation lands, and the property was transferred to the United States in trust for the tribe.〔Mohegan Nation (Connecticut) Land Claim Settlement Act, Pub. L. No. 103-377, § 2, 108 Stat. 3501 (1994) (codified at 25 U.S.C. § 1775 (2006))〕
This enabled the Mohegan to establish gaming operations on their reservation to generate revenue for welfare and economic development. They opened the Mohegan Sun casino on October 12, 1996, near the former Fort Shantok site above the Thames River.
==Mohegan Tribe's vision==
In 1997 the Mohegan Tribe's Council of Elders adopted the following Vision Statement:
::We are the Wolf People, children of ''Mundo,'' a part of the Tree of Life. Our ancestors
::form our roots, our living Tribe is the trunk, our grandchildren are the buds of our future.
::We remember and teach the stories of our ancestors.
::We watch. We listen. We learn.
::We respect Mother Earth, our Elders, and all that comes from Mundo.
::We are willing to break arrows of peace to heal old and new wounds. We acknowledge and learn
::from our mistakes.
::We walk as a single spirit on the Trail of Life. We are guided by thirteen generations
::past and responsible to thirteen generations to come.
::We survive as a nation guided by the wisdom of our past. Our circular trail returns
::us to wholeness as a people.
::.〔("Our Vision." ) ''The Mohegan Tribe.'' Retrieved 6 Dec 2011.〕
