Haudenosaunee

The Haudenosaunee, also known as the Iroquois Confederacy, is a group of six Native American nations: Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora. They are located in the Northeastern United States and parts of Canada. The Haudenosaunee are known for their sophisticated political organization, including a democratic council for decision-making, which has influenced democratic principles in North America. Their culture is rich in traditions, storytelling, and art, and they are recognized for their deep connection to the land and nature, as well as their significant contributions to social and political thought.
