In this video, we are going to be briefly familiar with the history of the Discovery of America land; specifically, we are going to review that how the USA was discovered by European explorers 500 years ago, and how the different European nations including the Dutch, Spanish, English, and French, reached to the New World Land, and started to colonize those areas; additionally, the interactions and trades that became to existence with the Native American tribes that were living there.

North and South America were first explored, found, and settled many thousands of years before Christopher Columbus was born. In fact, many archeologists now think that the first people to live in North America came as long as 40,000 years ago. Waves of people from Asia may have crossed a land bridge that linked Siberia and Alaska at that time. Generations of people moved south from the Arctic Circle to the southern tip of South America over a long period of time.

The first Americans, also called Native Americans, changed to fit the different environments they found. They split up into hundreds of tribes, spoke different languages, and had different ways of life. The number of Native Americans in the Americas in the 1490s is estimated to have been anywhere from 50 million to 75 million.

Some tribes had more complicated cultures and societies where thousands of people lived and worked together. In the Southwest, the Pueblos lived in buildings with more than one story and built complex irrigation systems for farming. The Woodland Native Americans did well east of the Mississippi River because they had a lot of food. Cultures that built mounds, like the Adena, Hopewell, and Mississippian, grew up in the valleys of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers and in other places. Many permanent settlements grew up, and they were kept going by hunting, fishing, and farming. The largest was Cahokia, which was near where East St. Louis, Illinois, is now. It had as many as 30,000 people living there.
