D-Iroquois

The Iroquois, also known as the Haudenosaunee or Iroquois Confederacy, are not associated with the western half of North America. They were historically situated in the northeastern region of the continent, primarily in what is now upstate New York and to some extent in what is today southeastern Canada. The Apache, Crow, and Shoshoni tribes, however, are associated with the western part of North America.

Extra: Native American tribes have a diverse and rich history. The Apache traditionally lived in the Southwest (mainly present-day Arizona and New Mexico, as well as adjoining areas of Texas, Colorado, and the Mexican states of Chihuahua and Sonora). The Crow were primarily located in the Yellowstone River valley, which is in present-day Wyoming, Montana, and North Dakota. The Shoshoni ranged through the western United States, mainly occupying areas in present-day Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and parts of California.

The Iroquois Confederacy was a powerful and sophisticated organized group of tribes located in the Northeastern woodlands. They were known for their unique political system and their influence on American democratic thought. The Confederacy originally consisted of five nations: the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca peoples. Later, a sixth nation, the Tuscarora, joined the Confederacy. Their territory, often referred to as the Longhouse, extended from the Hudson River into what is now central New York State. Their influence was significant both within their own lands and in the larger context of North American geopolitics.
