The Wabash Confederacy, also referred to as the Wabash Indians or the Wabash tribes, was a number of 18th century Native American villagers in the area of the Wabash River in what are now the U.S. states of Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio. The Wabash Indians were primarily the Miami, Weas and Piankashaws, but also included Kickapoos, Mascoutens, and others. In that time and place, Native American tribes were smaller political units, and the villages along the Wabash were multi-tribal settlements with no centralized government. The confederacy, then, was a loose alliance of influential village leaders (sometimes called headmen or chiefs).

  • La confédération de la Wabash est une organisation politique regroupant au XVIIIe siècle des Amérindiens autour du cours de la rivière Wabash, un espace aujourd’hui découpé entre les États des États-Unis d’Indiana, d’Illinois et d’Ohio. Les Indiens de la Wabash étaient principalement des Weas et des Piankashaws, mais on comptait également des Kickapoos, des Mascoutens et d'autres. En ce temps-là, les tribus indiennes d'Amérique ne représentent pas réellement des unités politiques et les villages le long de la Wabash sont avant tout des rassemblements multi-tribaux dépourvus de gouvernement central ; par suite, la confédération était avant tout une alliance informelle d'influents chefs de village. Dans les années 1780, les notables de la confédération de la Wabash choisissent de s’allier avec d’autres Amérindiens habitant les terres de l’Ohio et de l’Illinois afin de résister ensemble à l’expansion de la jeune république des États-Unis née de la révolution américaine. En 1786, un Wyandot nommé Demi-Roi avertit le Congrès que les nations Wabash, Twightwee, et Miami contrarieraient les actions des géomètres des États-Unis ; le Congrès promet des représailles si cela devait se produire. Ce mouvement de résistance culmine avec la guerre amérindienne du Nord-Ouest. (fr)

The confederacy, then, was a loose alliance of influential village leaders (sometimes called headmen or chiefs). In the 1780s, headmen of the Wabash Confederacy allied themselves with a larger, loose confederacy of Native American leaders in the Ohio Country and Illinois Country known as the Northwestern Confederacy, in order to collectively resist U.S. expansion after the American Revolutionary War. In 1786, a Wyandot messenger named Scotosh warned Congress that the Wabash, Twightwee, and Miami nations would disrupt U.S. surveyors, and Congress promised reprisals if that occurred. This resistance movement culminated with the Northwest Indian War. The alliance with the Western Confederacy ended in 1792 with the Wabash Confederacy signed a treaty with the United States. (en)
  • I Wabash sono stati una tribù di nativi americani, altrimenti nota come confederazione dei Wabash (Wabash Confederacy), stanziata nel corso del XVIII secolo presso il fiume Wabash nell'odierno stato americano dell'Indiana. I Wabash erano prevalentemente indiani di etnia e , ma anche Kickapoo, ed altre. Le tribù indiane all'epoca non costituivano delle entità politicamente determinate, e i villaggi presso il fiume Wabash riunivano più tribù senza un'amministrazione centralizzata. La 'confederazione' era in realtà una libera alleanza di capi-tribù. Nell'ultimo decennio del Settecento i capi-tribù della confederazione si allearono con altre confederazioni dell'Ohio e dell'Illinois per formare una sorta di resistenza comune contro l'espansione statunitense dopo la rivoluzione americana. Il movimento di resistenza culminò con la guerra degli indiani nordoccidentali, generalmente nota come "guerra di Piccola Tartaruga":. (it)
