The ENTIRE History of the United States in 8 Minute

Thirteen small colonies clinging to the edge of a continent became the most powerful country on Earth in just a few centuries. Revolution, civil war, waves of immigrants, two world wars, and a race to the Moon: this is the story of how the United States was built, and the fierce debates that shaped it along the way. This video tells the complete history of the United States, from the Native nations and the first European colonies to the Revolution, the Constitution, westward expansion, slavery and the Civil War, industrialization, the World Wars, the Cold War, the civil rights movement, and the modern era. Discover why colonists revolted against Britain, how a ragged army beat the strongest empire of its time, how the Louisiana Purchase doubled the country, why the Civil War tore the nation apart, how the Great Depression and the New Deal changed American life, and how the country went from a young republic to a global superpower. This video is based on historical sources and established historical research, with the goal of telling the story clearly and simply while remaining faithful to the historical record.
