Best Answer

The League of the Iroquois, better known as the Confederacy of Iroquois Nations, consisted of the union of five tribes - Seneca, Mohawk, Cuyuga, Oneida, and Onondaga. The year attributed to this is 1570, but many attempts were made prior to that date to establish the union, known to the First Nations as "we are of one lodge or extended lodge." One hundred and fifty years later, the Five Nations welcomed the Tuscarora and they became the Six Nations of the Iroquois Confederacy. This union gave them the numbers they needed to effectively expand and fight the invaders into their lands.
