The need to resist colonization from the US and other Native tribes and protect the land made them one of the fiercest warriors in North America.
They are perhaps known for the most famous battle in the so called "Indian wars" - The Battle Of Little Bihgorn - with Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse.

I made a mistake and I apologize. I forgot to mention that when the Sioux were migrating westwards wars broke out with the Crow, the Pawnee, the Blackfoot, the Kiowa, the Omaha, the Ponca and the Otoe.

Please do a Seminole War video !!, it’s the longest Indian war in US history & the only Unconquered tribe in the US who managed to keep their traditional way of life well into the 20th Century, it would be a glorious video!!!!

Fascinating story about American history, never get bored with the endless amount of timeless stories! Great piece of work and interesting pictures. Thanks for sharing your narrative!! A new Australian subscriber ❤😊

The Dakota was the parent group. The Lakota broke away around 1400 when two cousins wanted to marry but it was against the rules. They took people with them, changed the language a bit, and within 300 years were the largest Indigenous group on the Northern Plains. True story. I learned it as a student at Sitting Bull College.

I love this channel! You never hear about “pre-contact” native history, which is a damn shame.
-
Nice content as always, as someone with close indigenous ancestry, its so interesting getting to know other indiginous nations. Greetings from Brazil 💛💚

This is very interesting! Up to only a few weeks back, I never heard that there were people calling themselves the Nakota, and only believed that Dakota and Lakota were two different spellings of the same word. Imagine my embarassment, as I have been interested in Native Americans for decades... It is a shame how shallow the knowledge about these people and their cultures are spread, even centuries after their peak. Thank you for your videos!

Hi, I have a request for the channel owner. Could you turn on the subtitle option? Unfortunately I don’t understand your spoken language well, but if I could read the English subtitles, I could understand the narrative that I’m sure is very accurate. Thank you for your kind attention. Hic ;-)

U missed the major part where 2 groups split off and went north and eventually formed the Iron Confederacy AGAINST the Lakota and Dakota and everyone else. I am stoney Nakota Sioux/ Assisiniboine and we are Sioux but enemies which u missed and say we had happy relations with eachother

I realize that you can only fit so much in to a 23 minute video, but there is so much left unsaid here.

I had a wonderful vacation in early May. I road tripped through Wisconsin, Minn., and the Dakotas. Stopped at the Lakota Museum and the Crazy Horse Memorial along with visits to Badlands and Roosevelt NP along with Custer State Park. A very beautiful and educational trip.

Thanks for the video, me and a friend of mine are writing a book about the Souix, so we're learning all we can about them.

They need to have indigenous history classes be mandatory in high school. Because we needed to know this history even if we’re not indigenous it’s still the history of this continent and I want to know more about it. I’m from Michigan.

Gold medal winners Billy Mills is a Lakota Native American! An amazing story and a pretty good movie too!
-
From since I was a little girl I have had a lifelong interest in Lakota history and culture. This is the best and most accurate (to my present knowledge) account I have come across in almost seven decades. Thank you . I also wish to thank those of you who commented and shared valid information and your own stories. Much appreciated.🤗💚🌻

As someone with indigenous ancestry from Mexico and Central America it’s cool seeing the history for our cousins in the north
-
It would be interesting to hear a more in depth history of the Ojibwe
-
The first, albeit simple, explanation of the Sioux-Ojibwe inter-relationship, and mixed culture, as my family lived and experienced it at our homestead on the shored of Leech Lake. As a child, Sioux and Ojibwe cultural practices were mixed together in my young mind.
-
Great stuff, love to hear more about the Ojibwe
-
Best doc on this subject I have heard.
