1648 CE to 1659 CE
The Iroquois, engaging in a wide-ranging campaign of conquest that is unmatched in Native American history, also begin a major expansion to the west along Great Lakes at the same time that they are attacking northward.
Led by the Senecas, Iroquois war parties first destroy the powerful Neutral Confederacy, a nation located in southern Ontario numerically equal to the Iroquois but lacking European firearms.
