Love these videos. I use them to improve my own knowledge for teaching my AP US History class. One note on Florida: like France and Louisiana, Spain loses Florida after 7 Years’s War, but regains it in 1783 in Treaty of Paris ending American Revolution. America gets Florida for good in 1819 by way of Adams-Onis Treaty with Spain. EDIT: Historo gets to Florida changing hands again in his American Revolution video later

From France , many thanks ! Very few here are aware about/of those parts of History ... America , Canada , Texas ... Peaceful way of talking is appreciated as well . Hours of general knowledge ahead ...
I think of how my 5th great grandfather was 13 in 1763....and how he was still to fight in the Revolution years ahead. Lt. Thomas Martin....Goochland Co VA. Baylor's Light Dragoons....VA Continentals.
Presbyterian, Puritan/Aglican/Lutheran, & other Protestant Europeans originally settled the American Colonies. Protestants, especially Presbyterians, radically promoted values & ideas of education, free speech, free press, democracy, liberty, leadership, God-given rights, & sovereignty of man. However, the supremacy of the Catholic church back in Europe kept the masses poor and uneducated throughout that time in World history, unlike generally better educated English(Anglican), German(Lutheran)French(Huguenots)Swiss/Belgium/Scottish/Ulster, N Ireland/(Lutheran/Calvinism/Presbyterians/Anglicans). Pennsylvania, founded by William Penn, was the state that most Catholic/ Orthodox/Jewish Europeans settled. Penn declared Pennsylvania as a state with separation of church & state. Many Scots & Scots-Irish settled in huge waves emmigrating to The US Colonies in the 17th & 18th centuries. As you said, religious persecution was a big deal. Millions of Huguenots in France were rounded up & murdered enmass. The rigid Brittish class structure made life for ordinary folk, extremely hard & very poor. These centuries have seen civil wars, Jacobite rebellions, highland clearances, debtor's prisons, and punishment as contract servants, which resulted in massive exits from Europe. During the US Revolution, King George 3rd actually blamed the rebellion on, as he referred to them as, "Those rowdy, pesky & rebellious Presbyterians." Yet, I would better sum it up to include all Protestants. After the surrender of Yorktown, General Cornwallis refused to attend the official surrender, for the simple fact that he was an English wealthy noble & his attitude about American revolutionaries were that they were poor/backward peasants, who had no notion of class division
Your details and your way of presenting the material is insatiable; I can't stop listening to your lectures.
I appreciate it.

What about Pontiac's Rebellion that started in 1763? I'm not sure if I would agree that most of the colonials lived without threats of violence.
.
I'm intrigued
History! Let's hear you speak about present times in such terms :O)
If the British were smart they would had established 4 or 5 new colonies and lets the American roamed wild.
