After 15+ years, we've made a big change: Android Forums is now Early Bird Club. Learn more here.
How and why would you have done that?

Why would an android phone sold and used in the US have so many tracking apps from iran iraq russia china isreal pakastan japan go daddy and counless others of unknown origin be on this phone? Why would the phone not work if deleted? Which ones are Required to be trusted for the phone to function?
Go to security on your phone look under credentials you will find the list. Why would there be an option to delete them if doing so disables the phone? Are they all required.........Why?

Merged your threads for you...
Perhaps you could create an account so we could have more of an interaction with you?
Cheers!

They're not "tracking apps", they are digital security certificates used to verify the identity of websites.
Most probably because you deleted one or more which are required by core Android services.
Presumably all those listed under System at the very least.
Certificates are regularly updated, renewed and even occasionally revoked.
This may explain... What are Certificate Authorities & Trust Hierarchies?
Browsers on your computer also have credentials/certificates, I'd recommend not removing those either. 
I'm surprised you have been able to delete them. On my HTC devices I have a disable option which 'unticks' them but they remain in the list and can be subsequently enabled.
