Answer: North-East

Step-by-step explanation:

The area now known as the North-East in the United States is mostly forest with at least 40% of the area covered in them.

Divided into three zones (Coastal, Saint Lawrence Lowlands, and Great Lakes-Riverine), it was occupied by natives of mostly Algonquian origin with significant populations of Iroquoian and Siouan language families as well.

According to the Europeans who encountered them, they had developed complex systems of Government such as the Iroquois and Wabanaki Confederacy.
