• The Mi’kmaq were great traders, carrying goods between northern tribes like the Innu and Cree, and New England tribes like the Abenaki and the
Pennacook. They were also fierce warriors, fighting with the powerful Iroquois and the Beothuk of Newfoundland. But their important neighbours
were the Maliseets, Passamaquoddies, Adenakis, and Penobscots. The five tribes formed an alliance called the “Wabanaki Confederacy”. Before this
alliance, the Mi’kmaq were not always friends with these other tribes.  Sometimes they even fought wars. But once they joined the Confederacy,
the Wabanaki tribes never fought each other again and are still allies today.
