Key Language Families & Examples:
Algonquian: Spoken across eastern and central North America, including Cree (Nēhiyawēwin), Ojibway (Anishinaabemowin), Blackfoot (Siksiká), and Montagnais (Innu).
Athabaskan (Na-Dené): Found in the northwest and parts of the plains, encompassing languages like Dene (Dënesųłiné), Tłıchǫ, and Tlingit.
Iroquoian: Spoken by peoples like the Haudenosaunee (Mohawk, Oneida, Seneca, etc.) and Wendat (Huron) in the Northeast.
Siouan: Languages like Nakoda (Stoney) in the Plains region.
Pacific Coast Languages: A huge diversity, including Salish, Tsimshian, Wakashan, and Haida.
