The Haudenosaunee Confederacy has existed for many generations. Preceding the Confederacy was the Great League of Peace. Organized by the Peacemaker, with assistance from Aiionwatha (Hiawatha), the league’s members were the chiefs of the five nations.

It was before this body that the Peacemaker presented each law of the Great Peace. After the Peacemaker persuaded the chiefs to adopt the Great Peace Laws, the league became the Great Confederation of the Five nations. Now known as the Haudenosaunee Confederacy and consisting of Six Nations, it continues to follow the Peacemaker’s guidance.
