The Navajos (British English: Navajo, Navajo: Diné or Naabeehó) are a Native American people of the Southwestern United States. After the Cherokee, they are the second largest federally recognized tribe in the United States with 300,460 enrolled tribal members as of 2015. The Navajo Nation constitutes an independent governmental body that manages the Navajo reservation in the Four Corners area, including over 27,000 square miles of land in Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico. The Navajo language is spoken throughout the region with most Navajos speaking English as well.
Today the states with the largest Navajo populations are Arizona (140,263) and New Mexico (108,306). Over three-quarters of the Navajo population reside in these two states.

Love and respect from Greece to our brothers...
Got to admit, their way of life was successful for many centuries. Longer than ours. We could learn a lot from this hard-working, modest people.
Star Freelancer this life was not looked at as defeat we chose to live a life of non violence hence why we Navajos help in the world wars with our language dude only way America would have survived in the first place along with other native languages used in the wars Navajos kept to themselves along time ago I’ve listened to the stories about those time they been passed down and still live as well you should educate yourself in all native Americans out there that you should learn something from

@@leighannadeswood4372 navaho, naabeehoo, diné, even these names are less or false to describe the many names of the people. navaho comes from enemy names given to us by the spanish, meaning people who hold knives, or even from the hopi and other pueblos,
It was estimated that before the plague their numbers were somewhere between 108 million to 65 million, this is all the native americans.however the plague killed around 70 to 90% of their population. It took about 400 years to finish off the last 10% of natives.so it dropped from around 60 million to less then 1million.with some tribes going extinct.however there are about 3 million native americans today and 300 tribes still left after.
They make 2% of the American population.and around 0.085% of the world population
