Although the disambiguation name is Blackfoot, the page starts with the Blackfeet Nation which is only one of the many groups the confederacy is made of. Proposal to change the lead from:

The Blackfeet Nation is a tribe of Siksikaitsitapi people, whose members primarily belong to the Piegan Blackfeet band of the larger Blackfoot Confederacy that spans Canada and the United States.
