Native American tribes (Ojibwe, Ottawa)

The Ojibwe and Ottawa are Native American tribes with rich cultural histories in North America. The Ojibwe, also known as Chippewa, traditionally inhabit regions around the Great Lakes and are known for their craftsmanship, especially beadwork and birch bark canoes. The Ottawa are Indigenous people originally from the Great Lakes area, historically engaged in hunting, fishing, and trade, and played important roles in regional alliances. Both tribes have preserved their languages and traditions, balancing cultural heritage with contemporary life, and are recognized as distinct nations with their own governments and cultural identities.
