The British stole only the 13 Colonies and didn't wanted to go further West. The british respected contracts with the native Americans - The independent Colonies broke every contract.
A few years back I would have been shocked to learn that Americans weren't taught American history, but now I acknowledge that the USA re-writes history in the same way China does. Any dodgy history (and every country has dodgy bits) just gets expunged from the record in order to portray the US (like China) as forever benevolent, blameless & superior to the rest of the world. That's something every country in the world would love to say about themselves. But the reason they don't is because, well, History. We DO teach history in other lands...but we don't cut out all the bad bits. Australia, for example, is another country the size of the USA, where the original owners of the land were pushed away from the lush coastal areas because invaders wanted it all. But we use this part of history to show how just how bad the 'bad ole days' were. The reason for this is to ensure change in the present & the future. So, in the US everyone pledges allegiance to a piece of cotton - the flag. (white people).Whereas in Oz every speech, or public gathering, begins by acknowledging the original inhabitants (aboriginal people) . Aboriginal creation myths are taught alongside Greek & Roman myths. Had we not learned how murderous, cruel & bigoted we had been, there would have been no change at all. We'd consider ourselves blameless - & even entitled - & aboriginal people would have been completely wiped out. Rather than "almost" vanishing. I'm glad that people like you are learning the realities the US school system blandly ignores. But have you ever stopped to think what you, personally, will do with this knowledge? Or maybe with just a single episode - like the The Trail of Tears? The reason we're taught history with all the bad bits is so we don't go down that path again. The other thing we learn from history is how to prevent mistakes made in the past.
I really enjoyed your videos and comments plus learning more about the world around us. But after the after the American revolution, they really did a lot of damage and destroyed. A lot of native people betrayed them all.
Your opinion of the land is irrelevant.....it belonged to someone else.These people made a living from it,no matter how later thieving "settlers" viewed it.
When Hitler references something your nation did as an example to follow, you know you messed up
Which I find pretty strange, considering he thought the United States was full of Jews, and he wanted to conquer us, and all that garbage.

Thank you for showing us this video! Yes, please more of this.
This guy also made a “How the US stole Puerto Rico” video.
That’s my home.
It’d be nice if you could react to that too…
Nothing much has changed in 250 years.
Again...great reaction bruh
2:04 There's no better time than now, to learn something new... 👍🏼
and so started the US world domination tour

Check reality,not fairy stories. Australia has a similar history but nowhere near the scale.

Silly thumbnail ✅
Reaction video to someone’s work ✅
Dude on his way to be the next xqc 🤦
More importantly, he's continually learning. The thumbnail's YT's fault for how their clickbait works.
Good video.👏👏👏
Thank you 👍
