@@dakota6050 No. I'm not sure of how the education in the US goes on that matter, but America is the name for the entire continent, and so it has been since it was named like that in honor of Americo Vespucci, at the start of the XVI Century. 100 years before the English founded their very first colony and 270 years before the USA gained its independence. Dividing it into South America and North America is just for comodity and to facilitate things. So you can divide it into its two continents or just call it America and you'd be correct in both ways. But saying that America is first of all a short for "United States of America" is very insulting for all the other American countries. The fact they already call themselves Americans due to the name of the USA is already prepotent enough. Imagine if when Germany got unified at the end of the XIX, instead of "Deutschland" they decided to call themselves "United States of Europe", address themselves as Europeans and say that Europe is actually a short for their new countey, and that the actual continent is only Eurasia.

The attempts to drain the lake continued until the late 1800's when the Colombian government declared the lake and the zone around it a natural reserve and prohibited any attempts to mine or drain in the area.

I also find it interesting to look for artefacts on how these people dealt with the dangerous beasts that lived down there at the end of the ice age. Such as the Short Faced Bair, Terror Birds ans Dire Wolves. Sadly their evolution did not allow these animals to survive.

Also some scattered civilizations in the north. The Vikings also had significant influence on the eastern Inuit tribes- if I remember correctly, the Inuit actually didn't reach Greenland until about the same time as the Vikings, and a 3rd group was there first. Also interesting how many waves of settlers came across beringia.

[@dinil5566]

I like it when most of the civilization started in a desert where people have to be brilliant to form a city to share with each other and use their resources efficiently. Where in forest, tribes don't have to worry much and don't have to invent stuffs as they can still survive.

I like the mysterious ended is like the most well known part, but to the Natives it was world changing. Its like the end of Apactolypto when they see a mysterious ship in the ocean.

It's impressive hoe large the Incan empire managed to be, being both larger and more populated than the Ottoman Empire (the largest empire at the time) and the difference in technology easily destroyed the entire empire. I wonder what would've happened if the european didn't arrive, will it develop like the Chinese dynasties or like the Roman Empire? I guess we'll never know

Her government has two leaders (Zipa of Bacatá and Zaque of Hunza). You should research more (1000-1539). Before muiscas people, the first reference of population is the Man of Tequendama and Herrera culture.

I always wondered if the native Americans colonized any other parts of the world or at least visited any other islands or continents. Like the Vikings sailed to north America, some speculate that Africans and Polynesian also visited parts of America. Did native Americans visited other places?

[@Antikuy]

Theres some theories, about the incas visiting the polynesia, mostly based on the fact that you can find sweet potatoes (with almost the same name) and totora in both South-america and Oceania. Theres also some cronics about the prince Tupac Yupanqui traveling to 2 islands very far away, and returning with treasures and "black slaves". Also, in some islands from polynesia, theres this legend of a king called "Tupa" coming from the sea, bringing metallurgy and other things, and then returning to the sea.
