The Jesuits played a crucial role in Huronia during the 17th century as missionaries aiming to convert the Indigenous Huron-Wendat people to Christianity. They established missions, such as Sainte-Marie among the Hurons, where they engaged in religious instruction, education, and cultural exchange. The Jesuits documented Indigenous languages, customs, and beliefs, contributing to a greater understanding of the Huron society. However, their presence also led to significant cultural disruption and conflict, particularly as European diseases decimated the population and altered traditional ways of life.
The Huron people had mixed feelings about the Jesuits' presence in their villages. While some viewed the missionaries with curiosity and saw potential benefits in their teachings, others were wary of their intentions and the disruption they brought to their traditional way of life. The Jesuits' efforts to convert the Huron to Christianity often clashed with their spiritual beliefs, leading to tension and resistance among certain groups. Overall, the relationship was complex, marked by both intrigue and skepticism.

The Huron people had a council of chiefs and elders who would discuss and decide on laws through a consensus-based decision-making process. These laws helped govern the community and ensure customs and traditions were upheld.
