History
Quebec French
Dans l’historique que Toby Morantz a dressé sur l’évolution de la nation crie, il ressort que la structure politique éclatée des clans familiaux de trappeurs, et leur relative indépendance par rapport à la communauté en ce qui concerne la gestion des ressources fauniques et la préservation de leur habitat, demeure un fait d’actualité.

shattered
It depends on the context, but that is the translation that works the best for a political structure; here, though, in a bigger context, are they speaking about the political structure as being actively shattered BY something or someone, or just that it's not very structured in general according to norms outside of the clans?

Jane Lamb-Ruiz (X)
: that would be brisé in French..eclatee means separated into smaller groups..shattered means badly damaged, IMO

: Depending on the context - scattered if it's the nature of the political organization, splintered if it is because of outside forces agressing against it.
