Os comanches são um grupo étnico nativo americano cujo território (a Comancheria) consistia dos atuais estados americanos do Oklahoma, do leste do Novo México, do sul do Colorado,do Kansas, e da maior parte do noroeste do Texas. Eram originalmente coletores-caçadores, com uma cultura típica dos Índios das Planícies; chegaram a existir até 45.000 comanches, no fim do século XVIII; hoje em dia, a Nação Comanche consiste de aproximadamente 14.105 membros, cerca de metade dos quais vivem no Oklahoma (concentrados em Lawton), e o restante se espalha pelo Texas, pela Califórnia, e Novo México. Os comanches falam uma língua uto-asteca classificada como um dialeto do shoshone, o comanche.
