The  history of Canada  covers the period from the arrival of  Paleo-Indians thousands of years ago to the present day. Prior to European colonization, the lands encompassing present-day Canada were inhabited for millennia by  Indigenous peoples , with distinct trade networks, spiritual beliefs, and styles of social organization. Some of these older civilizations had long faded by the time of the first  European arrivals  and have been discovered through  archaeological  investigations. Starting in the late 15th century,  French  and  British  expeditions explored, colonized, and fought over various places within North America in what constitutes present-day Canada. The colony of  New France  was claimed in 1534 with permanent settlements beginning in 1608. France ceded nearly all its North American possessions to the United Kingdom in 1763 after the French defeat in the  Seven Years' War . The now Britis...

England became inhabited more than 800,000 years ago, as the discovery of stone tools and footprints at Happisburgh in Norfolk has revealed. The earliest evidence for early modern humans in North West Europe, a jawbone discovered in Devon at Kents Cavern in 1927, was re-dated in 2011 to between 41,000 and 44,000 years old. Continuous human habitation in England dates to around 13,000 years ago (see Creswellian), at the end of the last glacial period. The region has numerous remains from the Mesolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze Age, such as Stonehenge and Avebury. In the Iron Age, England, like all of Britain south of the Firth of Forth, was inhabited by the Celtic people known as the Britons, including some Belgic tribes (e.g. the Atrebates, the Catuvellauni, the Trinovantes, etc.) in the south east. In AD 43 the Roman conquest of Britainbegan; the...

Modern  Bangladesh  emerged as an independent nation in 1971 after breaking away and achieving independence from  Pakistan  in the  Bangladesh Liberation War . The country's borders corresponded with the major portion of the ancient and historic region of  Bengal  in the eastern part of the  Indian subcontinent , where  civilization  dates back over four millennia, to the  Chalcolithic . The history of the region is closely intertwined with the  history of Bengal  and the broader  history of the Indian subcontinent . The area's early history featured a succession of  Indian empires , internal problems, between  Hinduism  and  Buddhism  for dominance.  Islam  became dominant gradually since the early 15th century when  Sunni  missionaries such as  Shah Jalal  arrived. Later, Muslim rulers initiated the preaching of Islam by building mosques. From the 15th c...

The  history of the United States ,  A country in  North America , began with the  settlement  of  Indigenous people  before 15,000 BC.  Numerous cultures  formed. The  arrival of Christopher Columbus  in the year of 1492 started the  European colonization of the Americas . Most colonies formed after 1600. By the 1760s,  thirteen British colonies  contained 2.5 million people along the  Atlantic coast east of the  Appalachian Mountains . After  defeating France , the British government imposed a series of new taxes after 1765, rejecting the colonists' argument that new taxes needed their approval (see  Stamp Act 1765 ). Tax resistance, especially the  Boston Tea Party  (1773), led to  punitive laws  by Parliament designed to end self-government in Massachusetts. Armed conflict began in 1775. In 1776 in  Philadelphia , the  Second Continental Congress   d...
