The Northern Confederation was a {{Wp|confederation}} consisting of dozens of entities including many different cultures and governing systems. Above it all, the unwritten precepts of the Great Confederation, the event which established the polity, served as the central constitution of the Confederation. This unwritten constitution evolved over time, not based on a system of legislative revisions or judicial review but by a decentralized process by which the Great Confederation took on additional mythological meanings and traditions. This took place through the process of cultural interpretation and reinterpretation, a process that some scholars have called "government by {{wp|zeitgeist}}". | |||

The Northern Confederation was an extremely diverse polity, with more than fifty distinctive cultural groups and nations within its confines. Throughout the latter half of the Confederation's history, the Algosh, Housatonish, Honeoye, and Ashkenauk began to influence outsized cultural over the other peoples throughout the Confederation. | |||
In the 20th century, Kaigwa, [[Housatonic]], and to a lesser extent Tonawandis became major cultural centers within the Confederation, with arts, media, and fashion flowing out of these cities across the rest of the Confederation. In turn, throughout the late 20th century, a culture of mutual enmity and resentment between rural and urban peoples began to grow. | |||
