Maps & HISTORY of the United States-OUTSTANDING & Educational

This is a pretty cool, informative and educational tool!

This "moving" map of the country, showing it from the beginning of the 13 states and going through the present.

It includes the acquisitions from England and Spain, the Slave states, the Free states, a segment on the Civil war, it includes some mentions of Central and South America, etc. Click on each State for further info. Be sure to let the children and grandchildren see this

One of the things I especially liked was showing the Indian Nations as they were during the Indian Wars: Modac, Miwok, Mujave, Nez Perce, Flat Head, Crow, Cheyenne, Arapaho, Navajo, Apache, Dakota, Sioux, Kiowa, Wichita and Comanche.

I know you'll enjoy this site, especially if you enjoy American history, but have forgotten a lot of what was learned in school. Turn on your sound, as the narration is a significant portion of the presentation.

Click on the next line... (When it opens, do not click on Go at the bottom ..... click on Play at the top.)
