During the colonial period (1607 years ago), more than 20,000 years ago, there were a group of vagrants from Asia who came to Central and South America through North America. These people are the ancestors of Indians. When Columbus discovered the New World, there were about 20 million Indians living in America, of whom about 1 10,000 lived in today's Canada and north-central America, and most of the rest lived in today's Mexico and South America. About 1 10,000 years ago, another group of Asians moved to northern North America, which became the Eskimos. The first white people to come to America may be vikings. They are a group of adventurous fishermen. Some people think that they went to the east coast of North America 1 0,000 years ago. During the colonial period (1607-1753)1607, a colonial group of about 100 people established Jamestown in Schabik Beach, which was the first permanent colony established by Britain in North America. In the following 150 years, many colonists came in and settled in coastal areas. 1In the middle of the 8th century, 13 British colonies gradually formed, with their own government and parliament under the supreme sovereignty of Britain. Due to the differences in climate and geographical environment, these 13 colonies have different economic forms, political systems and concepts. Independence Movement (1754-1783)1In the middle of the 8th century, there was a rift between Britain and American colonies. The expansion of the colonies made them consciously persecuted in Britain, and they had the idea of independence. 1774, representatives from 12 states gathered in Philadelphia to hold the so-called first continental congress, hoping to find a reasonable way to solve the problem peacefully with Britain. But the British king insisted that the colony must unconditionally submit to the British king and accept punishment. 1775, the war was ignited in Massachusetts, and the second continental congress was held in May, which strengthened the determination of war and independence, issued the famous Declaration of Independence, and put forward sufficient reasons for fighting this war, which was also the key factor to win the final victory. 178 1 year, the American army won a decisive victory. 1783, the United States and Britain signed the Treaty of Paris, ending the War of Independence.
