Notes:
- Disputed borders are compromised. Most wars are not shown.
- Legal abolition of something does not mean the problem is eliminated entirely.
- Voting rights are not the same as free and fair elections.
- The indigenous boarding schools are indicated during times attendance was federally mandated. Some US states had schools that were gone by the time it was mandated.
- Near-universal suffrage means that there are still things like literary tests or poll taxes still in place even if no class is banned from voting.
- Gender change ID laws in the US may be possible for some IDs but not others depending on state.
