History
The White Earth Nation was formed by joining multiple Chippewa bands, from north central Minnesota. They had been displaced by European-American settlement and consolidated onto a reservation in Mahnomen, Becker and Clearwater Counties. Six Minnesota Chippewa bands enroll members separately today, however they combine numbers when identifying the entire tribe. According to the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe council, the White Earth Band had 19,291 enrolled members in July 2007 making it the largest Anishinaabe tribe in the state.On March 19, 1867, the U.S. Congress established the White Earth Indian Reservation for the Mississippi Chippewa Indians in Minnesota, following the ratification of a treaty between them and the United States. Congress had several session agreements regarding the White Earth Band of Ojibwe. After hearing many complaints about the Pillagers, who were then landless, Congress authorized the relocation of the western Pillagers to the White Earth Indian Reservation. They had not been included in the 1855 Treaty of Washington ({{USStat|10|1165}}), which was made with the eastern Pillagers at the Mississippi River headwaters. Eventually, the Otter Tail Pillager Band of Chippewa Indians and Wild Rice River Pembina Band of Chippewa Indians also came to settle alongside the Mississippi Chippewa at White Earth Reservation and effectively became part of the White Earth Band.These historic bands were:- Gull Lake Band of Mississippi River Chippewa
- Removable Mille Lacs Indians
- Rabbit Lake Band of Mississippi River Chippewa
- Rice Lake Band of Mississippi River Chippewa.{{citation needed|date=June 2022}}
