The tribe was divided into smaller groups, and each group was

The Wampanoag lived in villages on the southeastern coast of North
America. Their name means people of the east.
One member of the Wampanoag, Squanto, knew English because
several years before he had been kidnapped and taken to Europe.
Squanto was the first to meet the Pilgrims and he welcomed
them in English.
The Wampanoag shared their knowledge of hunting and
fishing with the European settlers and showed them how to grow corn
and beans.
In autumn, the harvest was so good that the settlers invited the
Wampanoag to a great feast that is now remembered as the first
Thanksgiving.
A treaty between the Wampanoag and the settlers secured
peace for about 40 years, but then the settlers claimed more and
more land and treated the Wampanoag with disrespect.
This finally led to war between the English and the Wampanoag
(1675-1676) in which the Wampanoag were defeated.

Today there are only about 2,000 Wampanoag people living in the
United States.
