Ojistah is a Mohawk American Indian from the Iroquois league. Although the confederacy wanted to remain neutral, it has been drawn into the war. Now the league is split with not only
nation fighting nation, but individual Iroquois within each nation are taking different sides.
Because of the old alliances with the British Crown, and the view that the colonial settlers are a
bigger threat to the invasion of their lands, a majority of the nations of the Iroquois Confederacy
have sided with the British government. Only the Oneida and Tuscarora have given major
support to the Americans. Even though Ojistah is not an American colonist and can't be labeled
as a loyalist or patriot, which group did he most likely side with?
Loyalist or Patriot?
