The Seminole Nation formed in the 1700s when tribes from Georgia and Florida banded together for protection. Over the next hundred years, Native American tribes in northern Florida joined them, as did African Americans who had escaped from slavery. Inspired by courageous leaders such as Osceola and medicine man Abiaka, the Seminole resisted the U.S. Army's attempts to remove them from their homeland. The Seminole call themselves the "unconquered people" because they never surrendered or signed a peace treaty at the end of U.S. military action. Today, the Seminole strive to create conomic opportunities for their tribe as well as to preserve their heritage and culture.
