	Native Americans: Passamaquoddy Indian Tribe
		People: The Passamaquoddy tribe belonged to the loose confederation of eastern American Indians known as the Wabanaki Alliance, together with the Maliseet, Mi'kmaq, Abenaki, and Penobscot tribes.
		Today the Passamaquoddy live primarily in the United States and the Maliseet in Canada, but the distinction between the two is not imposed by those governments--the two tribes have always been politically distinct entities.
		Passamaquoddy history is interesting and important, but the Passamaquoddy are still here today, too, and we try to feature modern writers as well as traditional folklore, contemporary artwork as well as museum pieces, and the issues and struggles of today as well as the tragedies of yesterday.

	Quoddy Loop -- Tides -- Maine & New Brunswick
		Since the Quoddy Loop falls within the Bay of Fundy--which has the greatest tidal range in the world (an occasional range of over 50 feet near the head of the bay!)--the tidal range here is impressive.
		The pull of gravity from the Moon and the Sun are the primary cause for tides.
		Since the Bay of Fundy has a large mouth, with an ever-narrowing passageway to the head of the bay, the enormous volume of incoming tidal water is forced upward, causing the great tidal differences.
