Oin-Oin
Oin-Oin is a character of Swiss folklore in the Romandy, somewhat comparable to Till Eulenspiegel. Oin-oin is a simpleton who still manages to get out of difficulties with humour and a unique sense of retort. From 1958, Oin-oin was played on radio by Claude Blanc, with Emile Gardaz his ''alter ego'' Milliquet. In France, the character appeared in sketches by Antoine de Caunes on Canal+. The historical model of Oin-oin is Amédée-Célestin Rossillon (1852–1923). Rossillon worked as watchmaker in La Chaux-de-Fonds. His nickname was due to his pronunciation of ''oui'' "yes" due to a hare lip Hares and jackrabbits are mammals belonging to the genus ''Lepus''. They are herbivores and live solitarily or in pairs.

Oneida Indian Nation
The Oneida Indian Nation (OIN) ( ) is a federally recognized tribe of Oneida people in the United States. The tribe is headquartered in Verona, New York, where the tribe originated and held territory prior to European colonialism, and continues to hold territory today. They are Iroquoian-speaking people, and one of the Five Nations of the Iroquois Confederacy, or Haudenosaunee. The Oneida are known as "America's first allies" as they were the first, and one of the few, Iroquois nations to support the American cause. Three other federally recognized Oneida tribes operate in locations where they migrated or were removed to during and after the American Revolutionary War: one in Wisconsin in the United States, and two in Ontario, Canada. The OIN was a party to land claim suits against the state of New York for treaties and purchases it made after the American Revolutionary War without ratification by the United States Congress, as required under the US Constitution.
