First of all, the Iroquois are not a "tribe" by popular understanding. They are, inherently, a "nation" comprised of several tribes (also called "clans"). The name "Iroquois" was awarded them by French traders. Traditionally, they are referred to as Haudenosaunee, or "People of the Longhouse". Originally, five nations made up the body of the Iroquois League. They are the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca nations. The Tuscarora joined in 1722, making the Iroquois become known as the Six Nations. As far as them being warriors, certain member tribes of the League were known to be warlike. However, the whole was more diplomatic than combative.

Despite this distinction, all decisions of the Confederacy had to be unanimous.
