The Oneida Nation is a Native American tribe originally from the northeastern United States, particularly in what is now New York. They are one of the five nations of the Iroquois Confederacy, which also includes the Mohawk, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca tribes. The Oneida people have a rich cultural heritage, including traditional crafts, music, and ceremonies.
Today, the Oneida Nation is known for its economic development initiatives, including gaming and tourism. They operate the Turning Stone Resort Casino, which has become a significant source of revenue for the tribe. The Oneida Nation also focuses on preserving their language and traditions while engaging in community development.
