Confederation of North American Tribes

The Confederation of North American Tribes refers to various alliances among Indigenous nations across North America, formed to promote mutual support and address common issues such as land rights, governance, and cultural preservation. These confederations often unite tribes sharing similar languages, cultures, or geographic areas, enabling them to strengthen their political influence and enhance their negotiating power with external entities, including colonial and later national governments. Such alliances highlight the rich diversity and complex social structures of Indigenous peoples, emphasizing their efforts to maintain sovereignty and protect their interests throughout history.
