There was no government in order a long time ago. So if one Native American saw a person from another tribe kill one of their tribe members, they would have to follow "tradition" and kill someone from that person's tribe. But one Native American saw a man kill his family. He was expected to kill someone from his tribe, but he just wanted peace. So he wandered off on his journey of peace. Then he meets this other peacemaking dude, and they pair together and form a team. So a government was formed. They had a chief. The chief would help the tribe if they had any problems. There was usually two chiefs. One for peace, and one for war. Every few years, all the chiefs would have a discussion together and say what was going on in their tribe. So it was kind of like a truce.
