I call bs on that… if so many millions of natives died, where are all those millions of cadavers? I think is just another excuse to justify European expansion and the displacement of natives. If there were no people living on those lands, then it was open for the taking!
Mr. Verrazano is who the Verrazano Narrows Bridge between New Jersey and New York is named after. And it is a very NARROW bridge as well. Just as Long Island is a very LONG island.
A factor in the colonization of America that is almost never used is crop failus in Europe due to the mini ice age in the 1600s. A lot of people came to America because they had a choice of starvation in Europe or possibly being able to get enough food to America
One of the most fascinating aspects of Spanish exploration was that instead of concentrating on the riches they stumbled on in the western hemisphere, they were still trying to reach a direct route to China therefore they actually neglected north America. see 1493 written by C. Mann
We are a country called 'America' because our official name is the United States of America. America is in our name; like with Mexico, who's full name is the United States of Mexico but they go by 'Mexico'.
Hard to imagine wars going on before those dang Europeans showed up. Was funny to hear him wonder about if the native Americans met the world on their own terms as if it wasn't about dominating other tribes for territories and slaves.
Roanoke mystery has been solved and confirmed by dna. First English settlement usually doesn't refer to North America but people use it in relation to the US.
The Royal Proclamation of 1763 precluded the 13 colonies from expanding westward. Everything to the west was reserved for the indigenous peoples under the Proclamation. A very significant reason for the War of Independence in (1776) was to break away from the British king's restriction on expansion. Under British rule, the United States would have been native land and tragic events like Manifest Destiny, The Trail of Tears, and Removal wouldn't have happened.
Sadly, your assumption is wrong. The proclamation was a war time tool. Once Great Britain had recovered from the war with France the English would have resumed their expansion west.
@mikebronicki8264 The Royal Proclamation of 1763 was issued by King George III primarily to stabilize relations between the British Empire and Native American tribes following the French and Indian War. Here are the key reasons: Preventing Conflict: The proclamation aimed to prevent further conflicts between colonists and Native Americans by prohibiting settlement west of the Appalachian Mountains. Organizing New Territories: It helped organize the newly acquired territories from France, establishing new colonies like Quebec and Florida. Regulating Trade and Settlement: The proclamation regulated trade and land purchases to ensure that only the British government could negotiate with Native Americans, thus protecting their lands from encroachment. This measure was intended to create a clear boundary (the “proclamation line”) to avoid disputes and maintain peace on the frontier. Is there a specific aspect of the proclamation you’re interested in learning more about?
@@mikebronicki8264 The Royal Proclamation of 1763 played a significant role in setting the stage for the American Revolution. Issued by King George III after Britain's victory in the Seven Years' War, it aimed to organize Britain's vast new North American territories and prevent further conflicts with Native Americans. It declared that lands west of the Appalachian Mountains were reserved exclusively for Indigenous nations and prohibited colonial settlement beyond that boundary without British government permission. Here are key ways the Proclamation contributed to tensions that led to the American War of Independence: 1. Resentment among Colonists: Many colonists were frustrated by the restrictions on westward expansion. They had hoped to settle and exploit the fertile lands beyond the Appalachians, especially after fighting in the Seven Years' War. The Proclamation was seen as a betrayal, limiting their opportunities and ambitions. 2. British Control and Authority: By enforcing this boundary, Britain signaled its intention to assert greater control over the colonies. The Proclamation was part of a broader effort by Britain to centralize authority, including enforcing taxes and regulations. This fed colonial fears of increased British interference in their affairs and their growing desire for self-governance. 3. Land Speculators’ Anger: Wealthy land speculators, including influential figures like George Washington, had invested in western lands expecting high returns. When these lands were placed off-limits, it directly threatened their financial interests and further fueled anti-British sentiments among the colonial elite. 4. Foundation for Later Conflicts: The Proclamation contributed to a broader pattern of colonial frustration with British policies. When later acts, like the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts, imposed more controls and taxes, colonists viewed these as part of a trend of oppressive British rule. In summary, the Royal Proclamation of 1763 played a critical role in escalating colonial dissatisfaction by denying land claims and signaling British intent to control colonial expansion and governance. This resentment helped lay the groundwork for the revolutionary movement that led to the U.S. War of Independence.
Native Americans were unable to stop colonization from anyone who wanted their land and resources because they lacked the technology of advanced weapons. The real question is what colonial power would you prefer that would be best for the Native Americans? Asian, European, African, or even Middle Eastern Empires would eventually colonize America. Based on history, I say Native Americans are lucky to be taken over by Europeans.
So, if this is actual fact, why isn't there stuff written over the last 200 or so years that Counters the history we learned in the 50's & 60's? Columbus' Log Books that his family still has, mentions episodes in Florida & the Carribeans, where he put a stop to the Cannib people EATING other people, for one instance.
Kindly but That’s not so, nez perce always rode apoloosa before Spanish got here.

America is the land masses. The united states is just that. 50 states joined to make a more perfect union. US citizens should have more pride in that. But I guess when half the country rejects normalcy and common sense, you're left with MERICA.
While all the people of North and South America are Americans, it was the Europeans that chose to call the people of the United States, Americans when the nation was first formed.
To US citizens it does. You can always tell when someone is from either Mexico or Canada because they say North America #1. US citizens don't include Canada and Mexico when we say we are #1.
Seven Years War shaped America as we know it FAR more than anything in this AI generated mush. For example, US Revolutionary War generals learned war making skills and strategic thinking following British generals around the battlefields.
What about St Augustine, Florida? Puerto Rico? Columbus did discover The bahamas and a new continent, It kickstarted the columbus exchange without it Europeans would never have Chocolate, potatotes, tomatoes,corn, etc and the Americas horses, coffee, and so on. So we celebrated October 12th with pride.
OMG. Of course Columbus could not have set foot in the USA prior to 1776. It is implied that he never set foot on land that became the USA. And Puerto Rico is not a part of the US, it is a possession. Let's make it the 51st state! That's what they have voted for in PR.
The Spanish came much earlier than the English, the Natives learned how to ride and raise horses from them. A century or so later, Iroquois could easily have traded for them but keeping horses through New England winters would have made them less practical than for a desert tribe.
At 3:35: Looks very similar to the United States! Why couldn't we have become citizens of each tribe, pick a tribe and they pick you. The USA would be very different today.
PS. If that was the case then all other lands taken over by others down through history would have the same effect. It's just about America folks. The democraps playbook!
There were never 60 million Indians in the Americas. That would be just under 1/6th of the current population of the US and Canada. Go down a list of the most populous cities in the US and Canada and pick out every 6th one. Where is there evidence of these cities? There is none. Indians didn't even live more than a mile or so from a body of fresh water so the land was mostly empty. When Lewis & Clark reached the Pacific Ocean they came across an Indian city of a little more than 10,000 people. They said this was the largest city they had encountered in all their journies.
Portuguese explorers were here way before the others . Columbus had maps he got from his Portuguese wife. There's alot of cover ups and false info on this subject.
Many of the more peaceful Indian tribes remained in better shape than the more violent ones who sometimes suffered huge amounts of death of their warriors and other timed suffered massacre of whole villages a result of retaliations. Treatise, bargains, agreements, can be struck with the white man in the name of peace and trade.
Every treaty (376+/-)made by this nation with Natives was broken to various degrees. 100+ more weren’t even presented to the senate for approval or were denied. To this day we have to fight for our alleged treaty rights. This nation is founded on lie/cheat/steal, rape/pillage/plunder, racism and genocide. Welcome to America! 😖
