COMMUNITY NOTED tdoay makrs the satrt of a new pizzashill.

I don't know too much about the west coast tribes either but that's mostly because there's like hundreds of little tribes and bands spread across around twenty different and unique language families it just makes my head hurt

But the most interesting would probably be the Haida, though they're mostly in Canada. They were known as raiders and enslavers up and down the Pacific Coast in a manner very similar to the Vikings and since their homeland was a large island off the coast, Haida Gwaii or Queen Charlotte Islands, so they were basically untouchable to any other tribes, and often times mayos (bongs/leafs, frogs, hard-working Americans, burgers and vatniks), to retaliate so they basically continued to have slaves up until towards the end of the 19th century. Today, they basically rule their islands as an almost ethno state even by other Injun/rez standards since they managed to cuck BC and Canada into giving them completely control and title to the islands, basically meaning mayoids and even non-Haida Injuns' properties basically (kinda) became Haida overnight.

The second most interesting would probably be the Aleut, though they're not Injuns since they're technically related to Eskimos and Yupiks. When the Russkies came, the Aleuts basically became willing henchmen, if not partners, in their conquests, trapping and trade and Aleuts could be up and down the entire Pacific Coast fishing, trapping sea otters and other animals and trading, even as far south as close to the modern US Mexican border. They're also almost single-handedly responsible for why the California Channel Islands were depopulated of tribes since they massacred most of the men so Spaniards evacuated the rest, though supposedly one native girl was left behind and lived all alone for years.

Apart from them, I guess Tlingiit? They were known for taking Eskimos as slaves. Most tribes around PNW can be interesting as well. They, like the Tlingit, were considered to be very warrior focused societies in general, though nothing compared to the Haida most of the time, and would often bash in the skulls of other tribes if they weren't the correct shape. They were also known for being highly sedentary despite being only fishermen and hunter-gatherers (no agriculture) which is considered unique but since there's so many tribes like I said, and the way they write their languages is so it's hard to keep track of them all
