It's like how the Roman's have all of Italian penisula, but we know Rome was not to original tribe of Italian peninsula and there were other tribes. We know roughly the date Rome was founded but we dont know the original tribe of where Rome now stands.

    I like this chart. It has so much information that could be examined for hours. One thing your video is missing is the acknowledgment of the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) which resulted in the U.S. acquisition of a sizeable portion of Mexican land. Part of the conflict leading into the Civil War (1861-1865) was the debate of whether they should prohibit slavery in the newly gained territories.

    Thanks for this and mentioning the older chart from 1910, I'll have to locate one. I was surprised at the 1859 date for the last imported enslaved people from Africa, as I knew the legal importation was ended in 1808. It should be no surprise that the existence of a law does not change behavior. I had to stop the video and find out why you had that date. It took a couple tries to get my search parameters correct before I found an article on the Clotilda and another on the Wanderer. For some reason, articles about the legal end of the importation of slaves from Africa did not mention many details about the illegal importation. My schooling pointed out the legal end of slavery and that was it. I have a BA in history, but no college class on the US for the time period had time to get that specific, and I don't even recall it as a footnote. My main area of interest in history in college was the ancient world of the Middle East and Mediterranean, and Europe from then until about WWI, so I didn't have any classes that spent more time on the topic. I'm in my mid-50's so it doesn't surprise me that the culture of the times glossed over this. Here's the article I found on the Clotilda on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clotilda_(slave_ship)

It included all war deaths, civilian deaths, deaths from disease, starvation, exposure, and even POW’s dying.

    Also one minor note, not all soldiers wore blue or grey. My 3rd great grandfather was an officer in a company of Zouave volunteers. Zouaves were volunteer units who dressed in uniforms designed to appear as Turkish militia. The area of the Levant was highly romanticized by 19th century Americans who were in love with flamboyant costumes and uniforms. The colors varied greatly by unit and the most prevalent color was red and that held true for both sides though Zouaves were more common in the north. The enlisted men in my ancestor's company wore white pants and a red tunic with a small amount of both blue and grey as well as gold trim. They also carried Scimitar style swords. I believe that nearly half the fighting forces of the north were volunteer forces and of them more than half were Zouave units. Many of the other volunteer units who were not Zouaves also wore their own often flamboyant uniforms and they came in virtually every color of the rainbow.

    we were also the first country besides England to get rid of slavery. that is a positive. Comparing to the rest of the world that had them for over a thousand years. the dose that makes it better of course not. But I feel like a lot of people forget that positive fact about the USA.

    Garret Garlinger - France abolished slavery in 1848. Portugal abolished slavery in 1858. Spain abolished slavery in 1811. Several other countries abolished slave trading before 1865. The United States was one of the the last nations to abolish slavery. Brazil and Cuba did so later.

    It's popular these days to hate on America while completely disregarding that the same processes played out in every part of the world in all of human history. History itself is the tale of people conquering other people, taking their lands, and displacing or utterly annihilating the previous inhabitants.

    As a resident of Florida and descendant of Floridanos, Calusa and Timucua I would like to point a few things out. First, no such nation as Seminole existed prior to the 19th century. The prevailing nation in Florida from the time the Spanish discovered Florida to the mid 18th century were the Calusa people. The Timucua were the specific nation in what became St. Augustine when the Spanish arrived in 1565. I would also like to point out that between 1761 and 1781, Florida was owned by Great Britain before it was returned to the Spanish who for all intents and purposes abandoned it to the United States who by 1818 treated it as a de facto territory though it would be another year or two before Spain officially left.

    its interesting how in the south, the civil war was taught as being fought over "states rights to self govern", but in the north it is taught as being over just slavery. also, i was surprised at looking at the major urban areas. i am from the houston area and growing up, it was the 4th most populated city in the US. i'm surprised its fallen to 10th.

    they're not mutually exclusive. the main reason for the war was over slavery, the corollary was states rights vis a vis the federal government. not everybody in the south owned slaves, not everybody who owned slaves was white, and not everybody in the northern states was against slavery. meaning a southerner may have disagreed with slavery on principle but would rather his state secede from the union than be forced to abandon the practice by royal fiat from the federal government, figuring that the support for the practice would eventually be phased out, as indeed the English abolished it 30 years prior. It's important to note that back then States of the US operated more like countries within the EU, so a Texan or a South Carolinian as opposed as he would be to the concept of slavery, would not just move to northern state just as a german today would not move to spain if he disagreed with some of the domestic customs. Most people in america didn't view themselves as Americans, but rather as citizens of their respective states. this means that the war was not necessarily pro-slave vs anti-slave but rather Northern states vs Southern States, the reason being the refusal of governors and affluent people in the south to renounce slavery. for most common folk in the south though it was the war of northern aggression = federal government centered in the north imposing on their state's sovereignty. all of this is not to gloss over the blatant and gross racism that was prevalent in the south, (and to some degree the north as well) but America was hardly the exception when you consider what was going on in the rest of the world at the time.

    It's partly due to semantics, partly due to politics. But honestly a big part of it is simply due to simplifying it to age level. For most americans this is covered first in elementary school, briefly perhaps, but when they talk about President Lincoln on President's Day they will usually say he freed the slaves. Then in middle school and high school they will cover it more, but with the vast curriculum and comprehension levels they want to keep it simple and just get through it.

    The french Louisiana Colony was first established in 1699 -> not shown on map. Note that Acadia was not only in Nova Scotia. Even parts of Maine belonged to it. I think you should mention the expelled french acadians which had to go to louisiana and formed the modern day Cajun culture. On the map with the natives you could show european explorations and expeditions. It would also be interesting to see the religions of different states since colonists often (not always) were fleeing religious persecution. Other than that, good job. You did an exceptional job on the timeline in the middle.

    The Spanish came as conquerers and treated the Native Americans similar to how they treated serfs back in Europe. The English usually settled in unused land. It was unused due to 99% of all Native Americans dying because of disease from the beginning of the Colombian Exchange. Once Native American populations began to bounce back is when most of the fighting started.

The abuses in Latin and South America were not really an issue in the Southwest. The millions of brown people in the southwest and hundreds of millions in Latin and South America are the descendants of both Spanish and Indians. In English North America they were decimated and the survivors relocated to reservations. Again no comparison.

    In Texas, there were around 50 small Indian tribes throughout the state in the 1700’s. The Comanche and Apache moved in and systematically wiped out these small tribes which sometimes only consisted of 300-400 people. Many of these people fled to the 5 missions in the San Antonio area, including the Alamo. All 5 missions still exist with the Alamo being the least well preserved. You can visit them in San Antonio by following the “Mission Trail National Park”. The 50+ small Indian tribes were driven to extinction by the intrusion of the warlike Comanche and Apache.
