Before Columbus discovered the New World, many Indians lived on the land here (Columbus discovered the New World and mistakenly thought it was India, so he named the natives Indians). The Indians developed the United States very slowly. Before Columbus discovered them, they had been in a primitive clan society, just like the state of our society before the Xia Dynasty. Although they have mastered some planting techniques and created a simple trading system among the tribes, they have not formed a text, so it is still difficult to study them today. Although relatively backward, the Indians still live happily in this fertile land. Until the arrival of Columbus, the original peace of this continent was broken.

On October 12, 1492, Columbus arrived at Guanahani Island (misunderstood as India). In the following six months, he also visited the Haitian Islands, Cuba, and other places, and returned to Spain shortly after that. And his new discoveries have set off huge waves in Spain and even the entire European continent and Europe has opened the era of great navigation.
In 1565, Spain formed a team and established the first permanent colony named St. Augustine, which opened the prelude to the colonization of the Americas by European countries. France, Britain, and other countries have begun to immigrate to the Americas and begin colonization. Among these people, there are a small number of nobles, and the others are poor and needy, criminals, or blacks who have been trafficked. Since 1622, in order to expand their territory, the colonists continued to clash with the Indians, resulting in a serious shortage of labor. At this time, the famous black slave trade was born! In the following 150 years, the Indians continued to lose in wars with various colonists, and their living conditions were extremely harsh. Some of the more famous incidents include offering rewards for "Indian Scalp" and "Bison Act" to create genocide (if you are interested, you can search on the Internet, and it is indeed annihilation of humanity). Through a series of colonial expansions, Britain, France, Spain, and other countries have established huge colonies in the United States. Among these colonies in the United States, the most famous are probably the 13 North American states established by the United States. Why do they all say it? I feel that the unification of the United States started from here. Although it is a colony, its economy, culture, and politics are relatively mature, and the colonial parliament still believes in King George III of England. But luck didn't last long. In 1756, Britain and France fought a Seven-Year War for maritime supremacy and ended in 1763 with the victory of the United Kingdom. After the end, Britain was impossible, levying heavy taxes on the colony and constantly oppressing it. During this period, the Boston Massacre broke out. Under this circumstance, the dissatisfaction of the people in the colonies became more and more uncontrollable. With the sound of Lexington’s gunfire, the United States embarked on a vigorous road of independence. Extended reading: There are now many people who are planning to find aliens, and many people who eat melons are enthusiastic about it. But, if we do find it, what will we encounter? What are we going to do? It is estimated that many people have not thought about it like this. If we find a planet with the same level of civilization as ours, we may be in peace. And once we are more civilized than the other party, who can guarantee that we will not be the American military in Avatar? And if we are lower than the other party, this is the worst case. Who can guarantee that we will not enter Indians? The end of the same people?
