Thumbnail Sketches: As is all too true w/ most of the continent of
Vargaard, we have little reliable data concerning the Lakota state.
These horse nomads evidently perform little agricultural work but
survive as hunters (mainly of buffalo) && gatherers.
The natives are said to have discovered the interest other lands have
in gold, && small quantities of the metal are now being traded by the
Lakotans. This is, in fact, how information herein has come forth from
the vast, unknown heart of the region.
*The Council is made up of "Old Man Chiefs" from the three
divisions of the nation (Dakota, Lakota, && Nakota) as the executive
of the confederacy. These men also sit on the other councils as well,
but have less voice in matters of war.
