The Modoc Nation consists of descendants of Modocs who were removed to what is now Ottawa County in Oklahoma following the Modoc War, an armed conflict with the U.S. military in northern California in 1872 and 1873. Historically, the tribe’s ancestral home spanned more than 5,000 square miles along the California and Oregon border. Modoc Nation citizens share common ancestry with the Klamath Tribes in Oregon.

Bill Follis served as the nation’s chief from 1973 to 2022, helping secure federal recognition in 1978 and leading several economic development efforts that have financed land purchases in northern California.

There are five elected officials in the Modoc Nation’s government: the chief, the second chief, the secretary/treasurer and two council members. Elections are held every four years.

Following a 2022 audit of tribal citizenship tied to descendancy from the 1878 Quapaw Agency Modoc Census of Subsistence and Ration, the Modoc Nation released a list showing only 210 enrolled members as of Aug. 4, 2022.

The Muscogee Nation’s government is composed of an executive branch, a legislative body and a tribal court system.

The executive branch is made up of the principal chief and the second chief (both of whom are elected to four-year terms) and their cabinet. Those executives oversee government services.
