The Sioux Nation


The Sioux Nation consists of large tribes of Native Americans traditionally living in the Great Plains. The three major divisions of Sioux are: Lakota, Eastern Dakota, and Western Dakota. A large number of Sioux tribes were nomadic who moved from place to place following bison herds, and their lifestyle also revolved around hunting bison.
