| | US Territories and Global Relations |
| | America's strong economy, at least through the 1990s, has been a key factor in the country's maintaining its political leadership in the face of sometimes frustrating challenges of achieving global military security. | | | At the same time that many of the European powers were finding their own destinies through the colonization of lands and peoples in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, the US was adding to its territory through purchases, wars, negotiations, and outright confiscation of territory. | | | In the 1800s, it was argued that the expansion of the US "from sea to shining sea" was the country's historical and unstoppable destiny. |

| | But it came to dominate the Chinatowns of North America because the first immigrants came from the Cantonese-speaking southern province of Guangdong, where China first opened its ports to foreigners centuries ago. | | | But over the last three decades, waves of Mandarin-speaking mainland Chinese and Taiwanese immigrants have diluted the influence of both the Cantonese language and the pioneering Cantonese families who ran Chinatowns for years. | | | The surging Chinese economy today has challenged Cantonese further. |

| | Woodland Period - Southeastern Prehistory. |
| | Of importance was a realization that the subsistence economy of the Woodland period was essentially similar to that of the Archaic period, utilizing seasonal exploitation of wild plants and animals but with the introduction of a system of planting and tending of garden crops and the intensive collecting of starchy seeds and autumnal nuts. | | | By the mid-1960s, however, it was evident that in some areas of the United States prehistoric cultural groups with a clearly Archaic cultural assemblage were making pottery without any evidence of the cultivation of domesticated crops. | | | This set the stage for agriculture economies of the later Mississippian period. |

| | North America is, I think, the only one country upon earth in which the life of no one citizen has been taken for a political offence in the course of the last fifty years. | | | In America there is, strictly speaking, no adolescence: at the close of boyhood the man appears, and begins to trace out his own path. | | | There is hardly an American to be met with who does not claim some remote kindred with the first founders of the colonies; and as for the scions of the noble families of England, America seemed to me to be covered with them. |
