The word tribe has many meanings. With the Indians, it was a confederation of sub-tribes. With the European invaders, it was every group of Indians or aboriginals that gave themselves a separate name.
Estimates of sub-tribes (or tribes to you) were that as of 1776 in the Americas, there were over a million separate groups.
