this timeline should be developed more. Questions: Does the Confederacy in its rampant expansion still function as a collection of nations or do the 5 central nations play the major political and military roles? How do you account for the cultural, linguistic and economic differences with absorbing the non-iroquois groups in the outer Haudenois imperial zone? Why use Mingo (also not even an haudeno word) as the national language? Mingo werent a thing until they migrated/pushed out of the Haudenosaunee homeland. Wouldnt Onondaga or other original confederacy language be more appropriate as they were the driving force originally? Also, does the Lakota expand west across the plain and then eventually into the mountains? Do they conquer all the native nations in between or are they absorbing them in alliances? (Because i can tell you that the lakota would be very hardpressed as well as the french to project their power to the west coast at that time. Coastal and Interior B.C. peoples are very strong during this time, small pox doesnt arrive in the Salish Sea area until 1785 before European arrival)
