AI overview

The Cree are one of Canada's largest Indigenous peoples, with over 350,000 members across multiple distinct nations including the Plains Cree, Woodland Cree, and several others. The Cree matter as a major First Nations group in North America with significant historical presence and several closely related Indigenous nations, though their shared heritage and contemporary role in Canadian society make understanding them important to understanding the country's Indigenous landscape.

El pueblo cree (o cri, según algunas traducciones a la lengua española) es una nación amerindia de América del Norte, constituida por más de 200 000 individuos, lo que la convierte en uno de los mayores grupos indígenas de Canadá. Los cree viven en Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan y Alberta. La mayoría de los crees eran indígenas de los bosques orientales, mientras que aquellos que viven en Saskatchewan y en el sur de Alberta eran indígenas de las praderas. Los crees son mencionados en el sencillo Run to the Hills de la banda británica de heavy metal Iron Maiden, que narra la colonización de los pueblos norteamericanos.
