First things first.
Government: The Iroquois had a grand counsel that would make important decisions. This counsel consisted of 6 members, one from each nation. Unanimity was the deciding factor of all decisions. The laws were binding unless ratified by 70% of the men, and 70% of the mothers.
Food:The Iroquois were mainly farmers, but they were also hunters, gatherers, fishermen, and horticulturists. They mainly grew Corn, squash, and beans. These are known as 'the three sisters'.
Clothing: The adult summer attire was only enough clothing to cover their lower extremities, while the children wore nothing. During the winter, they wore animal skins. They wore Moccasins for their feet.
Housing: The Iroquois would have their villages settled near water in a place that is easy to defend.
Religion: The Iroquois believed in several deities, including the spirits of Corn, Bean, and Squash, known as 'the three sisters'
Art: The Iroquois would use wampum shells to make Wampum belts, a sort of artistic belt designed to speak a message.
Recreation: The Iroquois played a few sports, the most popular being 'Lacrosse'. This game was played by taking to teams, made of 6-8 players from 2 sets of clans for each side. The objective was to fling an animal skin ball through the posts on the other side using a netted pole.
