Geographic differences were reflected primarily in the physical life style required for survival. Eastern woodlands tribes had more refined agricultural systems in cultivating crops although hunting and gathering were still part of their life style. Plains tribes relied more on hunting due to poorer growing conditions although some agriculture was possible.
Management of forestry was ahead of its time in woodlands areas. Plains tribes were more nomadic due to game pursuit whereas eastern woodlands tribes moved when resources began to dwindle in a certain area and the land needed a rest.
Exceptions to these general rules are notable in the Pueblo related tribes, viz., Hopi who were able to subsist on well managed corn, squash and bean agriculture without access to any appreciable amount of game.
Religious beliefs were affected by the geography from the standpoint of rituals and ceremonies specific to the food source attainment for the climatic and topographical area. Yet native American spirituality is still very similar on the North American continent as is the governmental structure of Elders, Chiefs, sub-chiefs including women in many tribes.
Shelter and clothing obviously was effected by the climate especially in winter and in colder regions.
Some differences between Native American cultures and African cultures include their traditional religions and spiritual practices, their social structures and family systems, and their modes of subsistence and economic activities. Additionally, they have distinct histories of colonization and interactions with European powers that have influenced their development and identities.
