The scientist who thought that the earth was the center of the universe was Nicolas Copernicus
Potelmy’s map was based on information by merchants and soldiers who travelled through the Roman Empire. The Ptolemy map is known to Hellenistic society in the 2nd century. Waldseemuller map used information from explorers as well as producing the first map with the label “America”. It was the primary guide, printed or original copy, to delineate clearly a separate Western Hemisphere, with the Pacific as a separate ocean.
2. The French were mostly interested in trading furs, not settling land.
When the French first came to America between the 1530’s and 1540’s they engaged in fur trading with the American Indians. Also, the french learnt their languages and ways, treated them with respect and had no interest in displacing them off their lands. This led the Natives to side with the French later.
4. Britan wanted to take land to set up farms for british settlers
The reason why most American Indians initially supported the French in the French and Indian War was because the British were taking control over their land. On the opposite side, the french treated the as equals and had no interest in displacing them from their lands
online it says more than 20 million immigrants arrived in America between 1880 and 1920 hope that helps :)
