☉☉☉||Kihodova Hopi||☼☼☼
A Hopi-Based Pueblo Kingdom in a more advanced America. Highly divergent from the Real Life Hopi peoples

Campfire Tales: Rumors of a 'pale-faced' man circulate around Kihodova Hopi. Believed to be descendant of the Nordwegans... Shaman lives after falling into a fire with only mild injuries... While the remains of the Aztecs remain at war, peace appears to be in sight as talks happen between two major warlords...

This is likely going to be filled with tons of historical inaccuracies, false information, etc, etc. As such, do not take this as an accurate representation of the Native Hopi nor as an attempt at a realistic alt-history for a quite frankly unlikely event.
