      The continent was nearly empty. Spread across what is today the US and Canada there were between 1-3 million natives at their population peak, roughly the late 1600s. At the same time the population of just England was 5.2 million. North America was mostly empty land inhabited by a collection of often waring tribes.

    • @StormWidgeon

      ​@@lookoutforchris For centuries tribes would be at war, one killing the other. It is well documented in indian war journals and historic documents that when one tribe over took a different tribe, it would kill every last man, woman and child to stop the blood line and keep it from being introduced to their own.
      By the Indian own rules, the only mistake American's ever committed was to not kill every last indian when we took over the land. Instead we as Americans showed mercy and gave them alternative places to live instead of killing them, which again was their own way of life.
      Now look at how that has worked out for Americans, nothing but the victim card demanding tax payers money for generations. Indians should have been more grateful they were not beaten by another tribe, or many other countries which would have turned them all into fertilizer long ago.

      To be fair, both Alaska and the Louisiana territory (to a lesser extent) were only relatively lightly inhabited by Russians and French, They were mostly just selling their claim to the lands. The United States after buying them still had to subjugate the natives and develop the land. There are virtually no signs remaining of the Russian colonization of Alaska, and apart from a few place names, the French colonization of the Louisiana territory is only shown in the much smaller land of the state of Louisiana.

      Which leaves a lot out and some untruths included . Napoleon did not sell the Louisiana territory because of fear of losing it. Napoleon just lost his most productive colony ( Haiti) which constituted 40% of the French economy. He needed money yo continue his wars in Europe. That was the reason for the sale. So the reason was: The Haitian Revolution.

    Morocco was one of the first countries to recognize the newly independent United States, opening its ports to American ships by decree of Sultan Mohammed III in 1777. Morocco formally recognized the United States by signing a treaty of peace and friendship in 1786, a document that remains the longest unbroken relationship in U.S. history,
    Edit : The first American public property outside the United States presented by Sultan Moulay suliman to the united state in 1821 in Tangier, it commemorates the historic cultural and diplomatic relations between the United States and the Kingdom of Morocco.

      Or the battle of Cartagena de Indias when 3000 Spanish soldiers with less than 50 ships smashed a whole English fleet, sinking more than 400 ships and sending to the grave more 15,000 soldier and wounding another 10,000?
      Or The Jenkins war?
      Or maybe the US independence from Britain supported by Spain?
      Or the The Western Design War?
      Or The 30 Years War?
      There's many more just study a bit...
      Or maybe you want to speak about the actual war in witch the Great Armada was involved? Did you know that Spain won that war? And for instance secured its world dominance?Do you know what was the purpose of the Great Armada? Probably not so i will tell you.
      The Great Armada left Spain's north ports in August 1588 in order to CONQUER England.
      Bad meteorologic conditions and bad cartography lead to the sinking of plenty of it's ships but the British only manage to sink 1!
      Spain still managed to win the war and to take it's position as the world superpower it was and to locked it for centuries.
      So, no, I do not agree at all, Spain was France and England worst nightmare for centuries.
      Specially England.

      I would only say that things are always portrayed as "Americans" being exploited by the "British". All parts of England, and then the United Kingdom were exploited by their rich overlords. The "Americans" were British citizens, de facto part of Britain. When the War of Independence happened its, in effect, a civil war between two parts of Britain.

    They've always taken the American people into consideration. American people didnt like slavery, they changed it. They didnt like prohibition, they changed it. They didnt like the lack of women's rights, they changed it. So on, so forth.
    They have always supported the side of democracy. No where in this video was the US government fighting on the wrong side (politically speaking). Even in the civil war, the government fought with the Union.

      Well he over simplifies and misrepresents the facts in a misleading way. For example the vast majority of natives died as a result of contagious diseases from the settlers as they were not immune. This was not intentional. He misrepresents by making it appear that they were intentionally slaughtered. Furthermore it is a known fact that conquest was the law of the land for native tribes where they killed each other to obtain land long before the settlers came so they were hardly innocent. Did you know that the largest slave owner in Virginia was African American?

Puerto Rico has more people than a lot of states yet when Hurricane María hit our government didn't help them like when Houston was hit by Hurricane Harvey. The UN even keeps a list of territories that are still basically colonies and surprise surprise several US territories are there. These people have US passports can freely move to any US state and have the same rights as us once their in one of the 50 states, but as long as they reside in their territory they're basically a colony with no voting powers.
