Seven Nations Of Canada
The Seven Nations of Canada (called Tsiata Nihononhwentsiá:ke in the Mohawk language) was a historic confederation of First Nations living in and around the Saint Lawrence River valley beginning in the eighteenth century. They were allied to New France and often included substantial numbers of Roman Catholic converts. During the Seven Years' War (1756–1763), they supported the French against the British. Later, they formed the northern nucleus of the British-led Aboriginal alliance that fought the United States in the American Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. Rather than consisting of seven distinct nationalities, the alliance was a confederation of seven communities or towns. From west to east the communities were as follows: * Oneida, Onondaga and Cayuga people of Oswegatchie * Mohawk of Akwesasne * Mohawk of Kahnawake * Mohawk and Anishinabeg (Algonquin and Nipissing) of Kanesatake * Abenaki of Odanak * Abenaki of Bécancour (now Wôlinak) * Huron of Jeune-Lor ...

At just that time, they got a huge sponsor, allowing them expanded notoriety. Band history Seven Nations started to form in Middleburg High, located in Florida. They would joke around about forming a band in the halls. Eventually they did and named it Seven Nations. The band got its start in New York City in 1993 as the part-time project of then-bartender McLeod, under the name Clan Na Gael. Lead singer Kirk McLeod states that late 1993 "was the first time we added bagpipes to the show," and therefore the origin of the band as it is today. During summers, when McLeod was a child, his ...
