Sioux County, North Dakota

Sioux Location Map North Dakota

Sioux County stretches across the southern border of North Dakota. It’s home to the Standing Rock Indian Reservation. In fact, this land has witnessed centuries of Native American history.

Fort Yates, perched on the Missouri River, serves as the county seat. The other major river here is Cannonball River, which forms the northern boundary. Bison once roamed these plains in massive herds.

Today, efforts are underway to restore the land to its natural state. The county faces challenges but remains resilient. Community is everything here. Pow wows bring people together in celebration.
