>>2841114The comanche adopted horses like many tribes, but unlike many they developed a full pastoralist economy around horses that allowed them to project power and collect tribute from a large area, much like the horse lords of the asian steppes. For over 50 years they held all the surrounding tribes in subjugation or alliance or just absorbed them, collected regular tribute from mexican states of new mexico and texas and chihuaha, and regularly raided deep into mexico. I think it would be cool to do a trip following one of their war trails.
