You are right! My Ashur is very different than yours. My Ashur is not oppressive!

Have fun carrying on a conversation all by yourself. I will let the readers enjoy your posts, as I move forward.

I suggest you do some research on your own from now on, especially with regards to self-evident and obvious matters such as the Seminole nation. they have several websites and an official one too.

Here are some minor details, until you have time to read more about it..

The Seminole are a Native American people originally of Florida, and now residing in that state and in Oklahoma. The Seminole nation came into existence in the 18th century and was composed of Indians from Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida, most significantly the Creek Nation, as well as African Americans who escaped from slavery in South Carolina and Georgia (see Black Seminoles). While roughly 3,000 Seminoles were forced west of the Mississippi River, including the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma, who picked up new members along their way, approximately 300-500 Seminoles stayed and fought in and around the Everglades of Florida. In a series of wars against the Seminoles in Florida, about 1,500 U.S. soldiers died, but they never surrendered to the U.S. government, hence, the Seminoles of Florida call themselves the "Unconquered People." The Seminoles are the only American Indian tribe never to sign a formal peace treaty with the United States.
Today, they have sovereignty over their tribal lands, and an economy based on tobacco, tourism and gambling. The Seminole Tribe of Florida and the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida entered into agreements with the US government in 1957 and 1962, respectively, confirming their sovereignty over tribal lands and agreeing to compensation for seized territory. On December 7, 2006, they purchased the Hard Rock Cafe chain of restaurants.

I put the last sentence in there because Anna Nicole Smith died a few weeks ago, at the Hard Rock Cafe a few weeks ago, in the Seminole nation, and the Seminole police had the ONLY jurisdiction over her body removal from the hotel complex.

Good luck
