Why this is the answer
American Indians (Native Americans) were the first people living in North America, and there are many different tribes. You only need to name one tribe, such as the Cherokee, Navajo, Sioux, Apache, or Hopi. The officer has a list of federally recognized tribes, so picking one easy name from the official list and remembering it is a good strategy.
