The Ojibwa stopped the Iroquois advance into their territory near Lake Superior in 1662. Then they formed an alliance with other tribes such as the Huron and the Ottawa who had been displaced by the Iroquois invasion. Together they launched a massive counter attack against the Iroquois and drove them out of Michigan and Southern Ontario until they were forced to flee back to their original homeland in upstate New York. At the same time they were subjected to attacks by the French. This was the beginning of the end of the Iroquois Confederacy as they were put on the defensive. It wasn't until the American Revolutionary War that the Iroquois Confederacy finally fell apart. Some members of the league such as the Seneca and Mohawk sided with the British while the Cayuga and the Oneida sided with the Americans.
