Military history of the Wolastoqiyik

The Wolastoqey militia was made up of warriors from the Wolastoqiyik of northeastern North America. Along with the Wabanaki Confederacy (particularly the Mi'kmaw militia), the French and Acadian militia, the Wolastoqiyik fought the British through six wars over a period of 75 years. They also mobilized against the British in the American Revolution. After confederation, Wolastoqey warriors eventually joined Canada's war efforts in World War I and World War II.
