To which group of North American indigenous people did Sitting Bull belong?

Martin, The Sioux, also known as Očhéthi Šakówiŋ, are groups of Native American tribes and First Nations peoples in North America. The term can refer to any ethnic group within the Great Sioux Nation or to any of the nation's many language dialects The Sioux NATION ((Hocak Saha)) consisted of three divisions which were based on their location, dialect and their subculture. The Sioux originally lived as Woodland Indians along the upper Mississippi in Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin. The were forced west by the French and their Chippewa allies. During the migration west to the Great Plains the tribe split into three divisions - the Lakota, Dakota and Nakota. The names Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota all mean "Allies" or "Confederates." The Lakota Sioux, noted for their warrior culture, were from the west and consisted of seven bands including the Oglala, Hunkpapa (Sitting Bull's band) Sicangu, Miniconjous, Sihasapa, Oohenumpa and the Itazipacola. The Lakota were also known as the Tetonwan/Teton, the 'Dwellers on the Plains'. The Lakota were the major opponents of the US Army during the Sioux Wars. Of the choices allotted, Lakota is the only possible correct answer.

From what I remember, Sitting Bull reunited the three divisions of Sioux, to face the US government, and I surely agree with this move.

William Laughlin, Thank you for the lesson.

silrem, lol.😂

Vernon Ross, Lakota and Dakota are both divisions within the Sioux nation, so Lakota is correct from the choices given.

There is more than one tribe of Sioux. Lakota Sioux and Dakota Sioux are the primary Sioux tribes.

Sioux was the correct answer !

TOO SHORT, MORE INFO, NOT ENOUGH BULL!

For goodness sake Bill......
