Spike you're busted for sure now XD

The history of the United States is what happened in the past in the United States, a country in North America. Native Americans have lived there for thousands of years. English people in 1607 went to the place now called Jamestown, Virginia. Other European settlers went to the colonies, mostly from England and later Great Britain. France, Spain, and the Netherlands also colonized North America. In 1775, a war between the thirteen colonies and Britain began, when the colonists were upset over changes in British policies. On July 4, 1776, rebel leaders made the United States Declaration of Independence. They won the Revolutionary War and started a new country. They signed the constitution in 1787 and the Bill of Rights in 1791. George Washington, who had led the war became its first president.

During the 19th century, the United States gained much more land in the West and began to become industrialized. In 1861, several states in the South left the United States to start a new country called the Confederate States of America. This caused the American Civil War. After the war, Immigration resumed. Some Americans became very rich in this Gilded Age and the country developed one of the largest economies in the world.

In the early 20th century, the United States became a world power, fighting in World War I and World War II. Between the wars, there was an economic boom called the Roaring Twenties when people became richer and a bust called the Great Depression when most were poorer. The Great Depression ended with World War II.

The United States and the Soviet Union entered the Cold War. This included wars in Korea and Vietnam. During this time, African-Americans, Chicanos, and women sought more rights. In the 1970s and 1980s, the United States started to make fewer things in factories. The country then went through the worst recession it had since the Great Depression. At the end of the 1980s the Cold War ended, helping the United States out of recession. The Middle East became more important in American foreign policy, especially after the September 11 attacks in 2001.

Education is never over, have some weird facts:

A well preserved 200 year old mummy of a Buddhist monk was found in Mongolia. Many other Buddhist monks claim he is not dead and is in fact in a deep meditation. Scientists are unsure of why the body is so well preserved, but they suspect it is because of the very cold weather.

Pandas are not bears, they are actually in the same family as raccoons. This is well known. But did you know that Mountain Hyraxes are heavily related to elephants? Look up a mountain hyrax and then stare at a elephant and proceed to wonder how that happened.

Diogenes was a homeless philospher, and was probably one of the best philosphers alive, when Diogenes heard Plato call a human a "featherless biped" he pretty much ran into Plato's school with a plucked chicken, claiming he was holding a "platonic man".
