Talk:Part 14 (British Louisiana)

Roadmap to this story
Created in the 1783 at the second Treaty of Paris, the territory of Iroquoia was supposed to be a protectorate of the United Kingdom, used as buffer state between the unorganized territories of the U. S. of A. and Canada. Iroquoia would compromise the territories from the Erie to the Mississippi, north of the 41,5 deg N.

Many white settlers, mainly from upstate New York but also from Pennsylvania, Virgina and Canada had been pouring into Iroquoia. Some times the small white groups are allowed by the Iroquois, some times they are expelled or simply slayed.

Many white settlers are completely hostile to Indians. This leads to further conflict.

By 1795, state militias from New York have been formed in Iroquoia, and from time to time raid Indian settlements.
