for the period under the authority of section 6702(b) (minus the
amounts allocated to territorial governments under subsection (e) for

body carrying out substantial governmental duties and powers, the
Secretary shall allocate to the tribe or village, out of the amount
allocated to the State under section 6704, an amount bearing the same
ratio to the amount allocated to the State as the population of the
tribe or village bears to the population of the State. The Secretary
