History
For centuries native peoples lived across the vast expanse that would
become the United States. In the early 17th century, settlers moved from
Europe to the New World, established colonies, and displaced the native
peoples.
 
The settlers fought for their independence from Britain in the late 18th
century and formed a union of states based on a new constitution. The
nation continued to expand westward and although the country is a
relatively young nation, it has become a global power since declaring
independence from Britain on July 4, 1776.
