Well, you have 2 options if you want to play as the native americans. You can go to Steam (You should have it) and purchase the Warpath expansion pack, which lets you play as the native americans sometime after 1783. The pack is about ten dollars I believe.

f you want to play as them on the world map from 1700 onward, you can just google something like "Empire Totak war all factions unlocked" or something like that. That should help you. Be careful though, if the game is updated you will have to download the mod again.

If you need further help just ask.
