The Native Americans have moved from their lands into urban areas to become “productive” members of society. It is estimated that 78% of the Native Americans live off-reservations while 72% live in urban or suburban environments. Native Americans have chosen to leave the reservations (even if reluctantly). In the late 19th and early 20th Centuries, reservation life was often viewed as unwelcoming, and there was a lack of economic opportunities. It was also characterized by low paying jobs and high expenses, combined with the inability to return to reservations which were often dissolved, leaving many in precarious circumstances. As United States citizens the natives are generally subjected to federal, state, and local laws.

the berlin blockade was an international crisis that arose from an attempt by the soviet union, in 1948–49, to force the western allied powers (the united states, the united kingdom, and france) to abandon their post-world war ii jurisdictions in west berlin. in march 1948 the allied powers decided to unite their different occupation zones of germany into a single economic unit. in protest, the soviet representative withdrew from the allied control council. coincident with the introduction of a new deutsche mark in west berlin (as throughout west germany), which the soviets regarded as a violation of agreements with the allies, the soviet occupation forces in eastern germany began a blockade of all rail, road, and water communications between berlin and the west. on june 24 the soviets announced that the four-power administration of berlin had ceased and that the allies no longer had any rights there.
