Location of Akwesasne Territory

The Akwesasne Territory (Mohawk Territory of Akwesasne) straddles the international border at the confluence of the St. Lawrence and Ottawa Rivers. It spans parts of New York State (USA) and the provinces of Ontario and Quebec (Canada). The Mohawk people, part of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Confederacy, call this territory home.
