The first true victims of American Imperialism were the Native Americans. As settlers slowly pushed West, native peoples were killed, forced out, or forced to assimilate into White American culture. Land would be set aside to "house" these many peoples, but even that would soon be settled. Native lands were slowly chipped away until they look as we see them. Many groups went from hundreds of thousands of miles of territory to a few hundred acres. Sometimes the land they were "given" wasn't even in their ancestral homeland, but thousands of miles away. Around the same time Americans would rob many Mexicans of the lands that they had settled and farmed for generations.
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
They created and nurtured them. Like children, the American colonies grew and flourished under British supervision. Like many adolescents, the colonies rebelled against their parent country by declaring independence. But the American democratic experiment did not begin in 1776. The COLONIES had been practicing limited forms of self-government since the early 1600s.
