What made the iroquois government unique?

Within the Iroquois Nation each of the tribes had their own elected chiefs. Iroquois Natives lived in longhouses, long rectangular in shape. They had frames of wood, and were coated in bark. They were referred to as longhouses because they were very long-often 100 feet long.

it's a secular holiday. it is and was a custom developed to recognize the ending of a time and a wish for a good future. the kind of kiss you exchange, if you are single, is intended to predict what kind of year you will have in the coming year.

it is saying good bye to the last year with all its ups and downs, and hello to the new year, with all its hopes and dreams.
