The arrival of Europeans to the America introduced the new diseases to natives such as the Iroquios. The natives had a weak immune system to these diseases because they and their ancestors were never exposed to them before.

What happened to the Hurons as consequence of the Dutch Alliance with the Iroquois?

The Dutch alliance with the Iroquois significantly weakened the Huron Confederacy, as the Iroquois used their newfound access to European goods and firearms to launch aggressive campaigns against the Hurons. This led to a series of devastating conflicts, culminating in the Iroquois Wars, which severely diminished Huron territory and population. Ultimately, many Hurons were killed, displaced, or forced into alliances with other tribes, contributing to their decline and fragmentation. This shift marked a significant change in power dynamics in the region, favoring the Iroquois.

Could the Iroquois write in their language?

The Iroquois did not have a written language in the same way that many other cultures do. Their communication and storytelling were primarily oral, relying on oral traditions to pass down history, laws, and cultural practices. However, in the 19th century, some Iroquois individuals began using the Latin alphabet to transcribe their language, particularly for educational and religious purposes. This adaptation allowed for the development of written materials in Iroquois languages, but it was not a traditional practice prior to European contact.


What kind of weapons did the Iroquois have?

The Dutch traded muskets to them. I'm not sure when that happened though.
