The British Colombia part of the map is very inaccurate. Not sure about the rest. Appreciate the sentiment though.

Also Sioux isn't a native name, it was given to the Lakota people and others by the French colonizers.

Yeah honestly there was something like 500+ tribes before the colonization, and I think most of them migratory, so there would definitely be a much rougher appearance to a more accurate map.

Haida Gwaii taking up the entire coast and interior yet isn't even in the map gave me a chuckle.
