At the onset of the Revolution, the Iroquois Confederacy's Six Nations attempted to take a stance of neutrality. However, almost inevitably, the Iroquois nations eventually had to take sides in the conflict. It is easy to see how the American Revolution would have caused conflict and confusion among the Six Nations. For years they had been used to thinking about the English and their colonists as one and the same people. In the American Revolution, the Iroquois Confederacy now had to deal with relationships between two governments.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEGraymont1972&#91;&#91;Category:Wikipedia_articles_needing_page_number_citations_from_August_2020&#93;&#93;&lt;sup_class=&quot;noprint_Inline-Template_&quot;_style=&quot;white-space:nowrap;&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;&lt;i&gt;&#91;&#91;Wikipedia:Citing_sources&#124;&lt;span_title=&quot;This_citation_requires_a_reference_to_the_specific_page_or_range_of_pages_in_which_the_material_appears.&amp;#32;(August_2020)&quot;&gt;page&amp;nbsp;needed&lt;/span&gt;&#93;&#93;&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#93;&lt;/sup&gt;_132-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGraymont1972[[Category:Wikipedia_articles_needing_page_number_citations_from_August_2020]]&lt;sup_class=&quot;noprint_Inline-Template_&quot;_style=&quot;white-space:nowrap;&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;&lt;i&gt;[[Wikipedia:Citing_sources|&lt;span_title=&quot;This_citation_requires_a_reference_to_the_specific_page_or_range_of_pages_in_which_the_material_appears.&amp;#32;(August_2020)&quot;&gt;page&amp;nbsp;needed&lt;/span&gt;]]&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#93;&lt;/sup&gt;-132"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>125<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Iroquois Confederation's population had changed significantly since the arrival of Europeans.

Dealing with two governments made it hard to maintain a neutral stance, because the governments could get jealous easily if the Confederacy was interacting or trading more with one side over the other, or even if there was simply a perception of favoritism. Because of this challenging situation, the Six Nations had to choose sides. The Oneida and Tuscarora decided to support the American colonists, while the rest of the Iroquois League (the Cayuga, Mohawk, Onondaga, and Seneca) sided with the British and their Loyalists among the colonists. </p><p>There were many reasons that the Six Nations could not remain neutral and uninvolved in the Revolutionary War. One of these is simple proximity; the Iroquois Confederacy was too close to the action of the war to not be involved. The Six Nations were very discontented with the encroachment of the English and their colonists upon their land. They were particularly concerned with the border established in the Proclamation of 1763 and the Treaty of Fort Stanwix in 1768.<sup id="cite_ref-Del_Papa_1975_134-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Del_Papa_1975-134"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>127<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>During the American Revolution, the authority of the British government over the frontier was hotly contested. The colonists tried to take advantage of this as much as possible by seeking their own profit and claiming new land. In 1775, the Six Nations were still neutral when "a Mohawk person was killed by a Continental soldier".<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTECrawford1994370_135-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECrawford1994370-135"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>128<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Such a case shows how the Six Nations' proximity to the war drew them into it. They were concerned about being killed, and about their lands being taken from them. They could not show weakness and simply let the colonists and British do whatever they wanted. Many of the English and colonists did not respect the treaties made in the past. "A number of His Majesty's subjects in the American colonies viewed the proclamation as a temporary prohibition which would soon give way to the opening of the area for settlement ... and that it was simply an agreement to quiet the minds of the Indians".<sup id="cite_ref-Del_Papa_1975_134-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Del_Papa_1975-134"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>127<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The Six Nations had to take a stand to show that they would not accept such treatment, and they looked to build a relationship with a government that would respect their territory. </p><p>In addition to being in close proximity to the war, the new lifestyle and economics of the Iroquois Confederacy since the arrival of the Europeans in North America made it nearly impossible for the Iroquois to isolate themselves from the conflict. By this time, the Iroquois had become dependent upon the trade of goods from the English and colonists and had adopted many European customs, tools, and weapons. For example, they were increasingly dependent on firearms for hunting.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEGraymont1972&#91;&#91;Category:Wikipedia_articles_needing_page_number_citations_from_August_2020&#93;&#93;&lt;sup_class=&quot;noprint_Inline-Template_&quot;_style=&quot;white-space:nowrap;&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;&lt;i&gt;&#91;&#91;Wikipedia:Citing_sources&#124;&lt;span_title=&quot;This_citation_requires_a_reference_to_the_specific_page_or_range_of_pages_in_which_the_material_appears.&amp;#32;(August_2020)&quot;&gt;page&amp;nbsp;needed&lt;/span&gt;&#93;&#93;&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#93;&lt;/sup&gt;_132-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGraymont1972[[Category:Wikipedia_articles_needing_page_number_citations_from_August_2020]]&lt;sup_class=&quot;noprint_Inline-Template_&quot;_style=&quot;white-space:nowrap;&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;&lt;i&gt;[[Wikipedia:Citing_sources|&lt;span_title=&quot;This_citation_requires_a_reference_to_the_specific_page_or_range_of_pages_in_which_the_material_appears.&amp;#32;(August_2020)&quot;&gt;page&amp;nbsp;needed&lt;/span&gt;]]&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#93;&lt;/sup&gt;-132"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>125<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> After becoming so reliant, it would have been hard to even consider cutting off trade that brought goods that were a central part of everyday life. </p><p>As Barbara Graymont stated, "Their task was an impossible one to maintain neutrality. Their economies and lives had become so dependent on each other for trading goods and benefits it was impossible to ignore the conflict. Meanwhile, they had to try and balance their interactions with both groups. They did not want to seem as they were favoring one group over the other, because of sparking jealousy and suspicion from either side". Furthermore, the English had made many agreements with the Six Nations over the years, yet most of the Iroquois' day-to-day interaction had been with the colonists. This made it a confusing situation for the Iroquois because they could not tell who the true heirs of the agreement were, and could not know if agreements with England would continue to be honored by the colonists if they were to win independence. </p><p>Supporting either side in the Revolutionary War was a complicated decision. Each nation individually weighed their options to come up with a final stance that ultimately broke neutrality and ended the collective agreement of the Confederation. The British were clearly the most organized, and seemingly most powerful. In many cases, the British presented the situation to the Iroquois as the colonists just being "naughty children". On the other, the Iroquois considered that "the British government was three thousand miles away.

All captives, regardless of their sex or age, were stripped naked and tied to poles in the middle of the community.

The coastal tribes were among the large family of <a href="/wiki/Algonquian_languages" title="Algonquian languages">Algonquian language</a> speakers, such as the Eastern Amerindians of Canada (M'ik Maq and others), and the Lenape of the mid-Atlantic and Powhatan Confederacy of Virginia.

The Editors of American Heritage Book of Indians said that one French observer hypothesized that by the end of 1678, the adopted Iroquois may have outnumbered native-born tribesmen due to the decades of intertribal warfare. During that time frame, the Iroquois had repeated clashes with French-supported Algonquian tribes, seeking control over the fur trade. In addition they defeated the Erie people, and the Susquehannock suffered defeats, as well as high mortality from infectious disease.</span> </li> </ol></div></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Citations">Citations</h2></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1239543626"><div class="reflist reflist-columns references-column-width" style="column-width: 30em;"> <ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-1">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.encyclopedia.com/social-sciences-and-law/sociology-and-social-reform/sociology-general-terms-and-concepts/stateless">"Stateless Society &#124; Encyclopedia.com"</a>. <i>www.encyclopedia.com</i>.</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=unknown&amp;rft.jtitle=www.encyclopedia.com&amp;rft.atitle=Stateless+Society+%26%23124%3B+Encyclopedia.com&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.encyclopedia.com%2Fsocial-sciences-and-law%2Fsociology-and-social-reform%2Fsociology-general-terms-and-concepts%2Fstateless&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AIroquois" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-2"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-2">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFMorgan1881" class="citation book cs1"><a href="/wiki/Lewis_H._Morgan" title="Lewis H.

"It was a confederation based on kinship—a symbolic household. They called their confederation Ganonsyoni, which means "The Lodge Extended Lengthwise", that is, a lodge that is "spread out far". All individuals and all the tribes of the Confederacy were considered as one family living together in one lodge. The Mohawks, dwelling furthest east, were Keepers of the Western Door. The Onondagas, situated in the center, were the Fire Keepers as well as the <a href="/wiki/Wampum" title="Wampum">Wampum</a> Keepers. Onondaga was therefore, the capital, where the Grand Council was held and wampum records were kept. The local <a href="/wiki/Clan" title="Clan">clan</a> chiefs of each tribe meeting together as a unit were the federal chiefs of the League. The Mohawks, Onondagas, and Senecas were the Elder Brothers; The Oneidas and Cayugas, the Younger Brothers. The younger and elder brethren sat on opposite sides of the lodge and counseled across the fire with each other.
