One of the best stables during the Attitude Era WWF, the Nation of Domination was made up of several highly talented African American wrestlers. The stable was based around its first leader, Faarooq, before his position was usurped by up and coming wrestler Rocky Maivia who would later become The Rock, who was young but quickly becoming one of the promotions fastest rising star.

Other members of the Nation of Domination included D'Lo Brown, Mark Henry, Kama Mustafa, JC Ice, Wolfie D, Crush, Savio Vega, Ahmed Johnson, and Owen Hart at various points of the stable's history. The group would last until 1998. During their run, D'Lo Brown would hold the European title and The Rock would hold the Intercontinental title.

The stable would be loosely based upon the Nation of Islam, a subsect of the Islamic faith adopted by members of African-American descent. The Nation of Islam is known for its famous members including activist Malcolm X and boxing legend Muhammad Ali.

The group was also based upon the Black Panther Party, a paramilitary and political organization based on the principles of Black Power. The Nation of Domination would use a raised fist salute similar to the Black Power hand gesture used by members of the Black Panther Party and other Black Power advocates.
