In the language of Sioux, the names Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota mean вЂњfriends.вЂќ The Sioux lived on the Great Plains of the western United States and survived primarily by hunting. The Sioux Nation is made up of three geographically different divisions of peoples who speak varying dialects of the Siouan language: the Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota.

The Lakota's heavy focus on cavalry units and having poor defenses, but starting with maximum population, makes them very similar to the Cumans and Huns of Age of Empires II.

Hence, some Sicangu Oyate prefer the endonym Lakota. It was popularized after the Sicangu Oyate nation settled in the Rosebud Sioux Reservation, becoming a bureaucratic term in the treaty process.

Lakota's former name, Sioux, is an exonym that literally means 'snakes', and was first applied, pejoratively, by a rival tribe.

For the Definitive Edition, the Lakota flag was changed to a flag with a light grayish orange background with a red bison over it, representing the spiritual meaning that this animal has for the Lakota people.

The Lakota flag in The WarChiefs appears to be based on the Pine Ridge Flag, which is the flag of the Oglala.

Female Farm 'WГіwaЕѕu' - I will plant crops.

In contrast to the revised Haudenosaunee dialogue, the revised Lakota dialogue retains more of the original words, albeit with one voice actor providing all the male lines.

Always have population cap at maximum, but can only build walls from the Industrial Age.

Buildings can be destroyed by the use of the Fire Ceremony or any cavalry with high siege damage. Cavalry can be destroyed with Bow Riders and Rifle Riders, and artillery can be countered with any unit. Heavy infantry can be beaten with Tokala Soldiers and Rifle Riders. Ranged infantry can be countered by Axe Riders, Tokala Soldiers, and Tashunke Prowlers. Their armies consist of mostly cavalry, as their infantry are mediocre and do not possess artillery, but the armies are quite balanced, too. Their houses are replaced by Teepees, which, instead of increasing population, increase hitpoint and attack of nearby units. One of the most unique and important abilities of Lakota is that they do not need to build houses they already have 200 population cap from the very beginning of the game. They have the strongest cavalry units of all of the Native American civilizations, but only mediocre infantry. The Lakota armies are mainly composed of Cavalry units.
