The history of the United States as covered in schools and universities typically begins with either 1492 and Columbus,
or—especially in recent years—with the prehistory of the Native peoples.
Officially the United States of America began as an independent nation with the Declaration of Independence in July 4, 1776.
European colonists reached the Gulf and Pacific coasts, but the largest settlements were by the English on the East Coast,
starting in 1607. By the 1770s the Thirteen Colonies contained two and a half million people. They were prospering, and
had developed their own political and legal systems. The British government's threat to American self-government led to war in
1775 and the Declaration of Independence in 1776. With major military and financial support from France, the Patriots won the
American Revolution. In 1789 the Constitution became the basis for the United States federal government, with war hero
George Washington as the first president. The young nation continued to struggle with the scope of central government and
with European influence, creating the first political parties in the 1790s, and fighting a second war for
independence from Britain in 1812.
U.S. territory expanded westward across the continent, brushing aside Native Americans and Mexico, and rejecting the advice of
Whigs who wanted to deepen the economy rather than expand the geography. Slavery of Africans was abolished in all the
Northern states by 1803, but it flourished in the Southern states because of heavy European demand for cotton. After 1820 a
series of compromises postponed a showdown on the issue of slavery, but in the late 1850s the new Republican power
took political control of the North and promised to stop the expansion of slavery, which implied its eventual death.
