I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The unique relationship that tribal governments have with local, state, and federal governments would be that tribal governments are sovereign nations that do not have to comply with state laws but must honor treaties they have with the federal government.
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
