Iroquois passport Iroquois passport The Iroquois passport or Haudenosaunee passport is a form of identification and an "expression of sovereignty" used by the nationals of the Iroquois League (Iroquois: "Haudenosaunee"). The Iroquois government has issued passports since at least 1923, when Haudenosaunee authorities issued a passport to Cayuga statesman Deskaheh to travel to the League of Nations headquarters in Geneva. The Iroquois passport evolved from negotiations with the U.S. State Department, Canada, Britain and other countries and has been used since 1977. In 2005 Japan allowed a delegation travelling on the Iroquois passport to visit that country for the World Congress of
Iroquois and Onondaga this time, instead of the Mohawk whom were the favorite enemies of the French. On July 6, he left Lachine at the head of a considerable force and traveled to the village of the Onondaga, where he arrived a month later. With support from the French, the Algonquian nations drove the Iroquois out of the territories north of Lake Erie and west of present-day Cleveland, Ohio, regions which they had conquered during the Beaver Wars. In the meantime, the Iroquois had abandoned their villages. As pursuit was impracticable, the French army commenced its return march on August 10.
