Alliances

The Western Confederacy united three prominent Nations, the Miami, Shawnee, and Delaware, with additional members from other Nations. Chief Little Turtle of the Miami, Blue Jacket of the Shawnee, and Buckongahelas of the Delaware were the primary leaders. Their strong, organized alliance dealt the United States two major losses in 1790 and 1791. At the Battle of Fallen Timbers, 1,100 warriors fought from the Wyandot, Mingo, Delaware, Shawnee, Ottawa, Chippewa, and Potawatomie.
