History Of United States

By: Goward, Ali Goward

Around 15,000 BC, the first people entered the Americas, marking the beginning of the history of the regions that would eventually become the United States. There were several indigenous civilizations that developed, and many of them underwent changes in the 16th century away from densely populated lives and toward reformed polities abroad. However, the majority of the colonies in what would later become the United States were inhabited after 1600. European colonization of the Americas began in the late 15th century. The thirteen British colonies, located along the Atlantic Coast east of the Appalachian Mountains, had 2.5 million inhabitants by the 1760s. Following the British victory over France, the colonists' constitutional claim that additional taxes required their consent was rejected, and the British government enacted a number of taxes, including the Stamp Act of 1765. Parliament imposed harsh legislation intended to destroy self-government in response to opposition to these taxes, particularly after the Boston Tea Party in 1773. In Massachusetts, hostilities first broke out in 1775.
