I cannot encourage people enough to take a continuing education class about the area in which you live. My husband & I took a "History of (my area)" at the local college. Learned all about migration, then focused on the native trails in my area, which are now interstates. My area was heavily impacted by the Civil War in 1861-1865, so it was also shown to us where troops stayed, where battles happened, the old roads that used to be important but are now grown over, and so much more. Been here 30 years and had no idea. Please react to Schoolhouse Rock! A standard during Saturday morning cartoons in the 70s-80s. Short "commercial" clips about math, social studies/government, and grammar. "Conjunction Junction, what's your function?" is one of the best. But you might want to look at the US government ones. I still have the Preamble to the Constitution memorized because of Schoolhouse Rock.

It was also done to prevent a possible future war with France. The US had gotten Florida from Spain, but the Spanish considered everything up too New Orleans to be part of Florida. Sorry Mississippi and Alabama, no beachfront property for you. But they never really pushed it because they were so busy in South America. Georgia also didn't have an official recognized western boundary. They could include everything until they hit the Pacific. Or French and Spanish colonies in the way. Though not legal, the people in Washington knew settlers would keep expanding west regardless of borders, so buying all of the Louisiana Territory was accepting the inevitable without having to fight for it. It also gave America some control over the people that moved there.

This Treaty of Tordesillas gave everything east of a line to Portugal and everything west to Spain. That’s why Cape Verde, the Azores, parts of Africa, Macao - and of course, Brazil - were colonized by Portugal, but the rest of South America and most of the Caribbean were colonized by Spain. And why Brazil is the one that speaks Portuguese whereas the rest of Latin America speaks Spanish.

I value my thumbs the most. Without thumbs, it's hard to hold anything. This video gave a view from 10,000 feet. That is, only the biggest events, without much detail. Portuguese is still the official language of Brazil. It was Portugal's biggest colony. Lincoln didn't call for the complete banning of slavery until the Civil War was well along. His position when running for president was to stop the expansion of slavery, not to ban it where it already existed. He believed that, over time, slavery would die off if it weren't allowed in the newer parts of the country. The greatest contribution of the U.S. in World War II was materiel: weapons, ships, planes, transport vehicles, and the like. The U.S. was across two oceans from the main Axis powers, so was protected from bombing. This made it possible to keep supplying materiel while the factories of Germany and Japan were being damaged and destroyed. The modern Civil Rights Movement started in the fifties, not the sixties. Some important events included the Supreme Court decision to require integration of public schools in 1954 and the Montgomery bus boycott in 1955 and 1956. One thing to keep in mind regarding all the trading of and fighting over land is that there were people living there before the Europeans came in. The Louisiana Purchase did not have the approval or sanction of the Indians who were there first. The Lewis and Clark Expedition, which happened after the Louisiana Purchase, is a fascinating story. They led a team of explorers to find a navigable route to Oregon through the newly-purchased land. There were no maps and no roads, and they had no idea what they would encounter along the way. There are some pretty good documentaries on KZitem about it.

America has its own, dramatic history with European & British interest, and South Africa's colony was founded in 1652, starting our modern history. Fascinating histories, and no debts owed to the past anymore, either. We are looking forwards.

I tried to teach them texting, to no avail, they ganged up with my fingers to present me a paper on RSI and said I would be hearing from their solicitor as that was not in their job description.

This definitely is a “refresher”, but it is omitting or just gets wrong some things that it says or should have said. One example: Lincoln didn’t support ending slavery right when he entered office in 1861. He came to it gradually over the next 18 months, not making it happen until rumors of Britain & France intervening on behalf of the South/Confederacy. He knew they wouldn’t dare oppose the U. S. if we made the war about ending slavery as it would hurt their own reputations and be seen as hypocrites.

He forgot to mention president Thomas Jefferson in 1804 commissioned Lewis and Clark to explore the Northwest territories ( Oregon Territory ) and claim it for the United States. There were the British, Russians and Spanish trying to claim rights to the Northwest Territories at that time.

Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson is working on figuring out the history of the 1st Nation/Native American peoples. I find it pretty interesting.

The middle finger of my right hand is the most important, without it I couldn’t drive.

Some think the Irish found America before Columbus. St. Brendan supposedly sailed across the North Atlantic in a small boat.

Facts were indeed skimmed. Scandinavians (Vikings) landed in Newfoundland 500 years before Columbus hit the West Indies. And no mention of Amerigo.
