Reply to TIL that when the French first arrived in North America they met the Ojibwe Indians who introduced them to other tribes but used nasty names. The Lakota/Dakota people were called "Nadowessiwag," which became Nadouessioux in French, then Sioux in English. It means "little snake." by marmorset
It's Lakota, our neighbour tribe, they are pain in our assholes. We hunt deer, they hunt deer, we fish salmon, they fish salmon too. Majority of our tribesmen survived the winter, half of they died. Grate success
