True America was once British colonies, which means that at the time it was the British and other nations that were part of the colonies(such as France, my home country) that forced the Natives of the land off their land, not the Americans as they are seen today. Views of the past in countries shouldn't be viewed on how they act in the present. Basically making judgments of how they were because of how they are now. Because in the early stages of America's growth, the people still held onto their old customs like the French lived among other French and held onto our customs. Only in the past 100 years did the Americans begin to show their own culture instead of that of their home countries. Also Napoleon was not in power until after America was independent. Technically few countries originally "belonged" to the people that now claim it. England for example was taken from the Picts by Rome. And here in France it was taken from the Franks also by the Romans. Go back far enough and most places were taken by another people. Tu es con.Rank: #3014
