The Kwakiutl Tribe

Geography effected the Kwakiutl tribe because their lifestyle dealt with having rainy weather, soon they adapted to their environment, used it to provide food etc.

The Blackfoot Tribe

The Blackfoot were a powerful buffalo-hunting society of the northern plains. The Blackfoot's main source of food was buffalo. Besides cooking and cleaning, a Blackfoot woman built her family's house and dragged the heavy posts with her whenever the tribe moved. Houses belonged to the women in the Blackfoot tribe. Blackfoot men were hunters and sometimes went to war to defend their families. Most Blackfoot chiefs and warriors were men. Both genders took part in storytelling, artwork and music. Since the Blackfeet moved frequently to follow the buffalo herds, a tipi was carefully designed to set up and break down quickly, like a modern tent. An entire Blackfoot village could be packed up and ready to move within an hour.

The Natchaez Tribe

Geography affected the Natchez lifestyle because they had to get used to the humid, marshy land. They had to farm, fish, and hunt for food.
