Reading report
The history of the United States has been an experiment in democracy for more than 200 years. Issues that were addressed in the early years continue to bead dressed and resolved today. So, after reading this book, we were influenced a lot.
In the early America, at the height of the most recent Ice Age, about 35,000 years ago, much of the worlds water was locked up in vast continental ice sheets. The first Americans crossed the land bridge from Asia and were believed to have stayed in what is now Alaska for thousands of years. These early groups are known as Hohokam, Adenans, Hopewellians, and Anasazi. They built villages and grew crops. The first Europeans to arrive in North America 一 at least the first for whom there is solid evidence — were Norse.
It would be almost 500 more years before other Europeans reached North America and another 100 years after that before permanent settlements were established. The first and most famous of these explorers was Christopher Columbus of Genoa? The 1500s were the age of Spanish exploration in the Americas. Juan Ponce de Leon landed in what is now Florida in 1513.
While the Spanish were pushing up from the south, the northern portion of the present-day United States was slowly being revealed through the journeys of other Europeans. The first permanent European settlement in what was to become the United States was established by the Spanish in the middle 1500s at St. Augustine in Florida. However, it would not play a part in the formation of the new nation.
Most settlers who came to the British colonies in the 1600s were English. Others came from The Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, France, and later from Scotland and Northern Ireland? Some left their homelands to escape war, political oppression, religious persecution, or a prison sentence? Some left as servants who expected to work their way to freedom. Black Africans were sold into slavery and arrived in shackles.
