What if Europe never colonized America?
What if Europe never colonized America? If Europeans never colonized and invaded America, the native nations and tribes would continue to interact in trade. What we see as the new world would be extremely diverse and the groups which live on the continent would become well-known peoples in the old world.
How did Indians get to America?
The ancestors of the American Indians were nomadic hunters of northeast Asia who migrated over the Bering Strait land bridge into North America probably during the last glacial period (11,500–30,000 years ago). By c. 10,000 bc they had occupied much of North, Central, and South America.
Why do Native Americans get money?
Low-income Native Americans get some money directly to improve their living conditions on reservations or other tribal land areas. You must demonstrate a considerable need for renovation, repair, or re-building in order to qualify.
Do Native Americans pay taxes?
All Indians are subject to federal income taxes. As sovereign entities, tribal governments have the power to levy taxes on reservation lands. Some tribes do and some don’t. As a result, Indians and non-Indians may or may not pay sales taxes on goods and services purchased on the reservation depending on the tribe.
