Different tribes had different systems of government. The most common form of governance of smaller tribes involved a council of elders. The eldest members of the tribe voted on decisions and elected a main leader to organize the council. However, the Iroquois had a confederacy of five different large tribes.

The leaders of these tribes often met with founding fathers such as Washington and Benjamin Franklin and heavily influenced the American constitution and governmental system.
