Need some help for my US History homework

[AlphaIVT]

Our project more likely is to find some information about our state (California), where can I find a website that would tell me information about all the US states and their main attractions, economic stats, population, etc.?

 

[Triumph]

www.yourpubliclibrary.com. it'll get you out of the house at least.

 

[AlphaIVT]

That site is still under construction, anyone got any other sites?

 

[TGCid]

Alpha,
Triumph actually meant you walk to your public library and check out some books, apparently you don't get it. You can try doing a search on the internet at [l]www.google.com[/l] and [l]www.askjeeves.com[/l]

 

[AlphaIVT]

I did get it, I wanted to ignore it and I can't go to the local library because its far away and I got no ride.

US History huh? Just write "It's all a bunch of bullsh!t", in big, bold letters, across your paper. If your teacher knows anything, he'll give you an A+.

[DABANSHEE]

California is a part of Mexico that was invaded & taken over by the US 150 years ago, against the wishes of the vast majority of its citizens.

 

[AndrewR]

DABANSHEE: Australia was a penal colony established by the British which displaced the native Aborigines from their homeland.

What's your point?

 

[BoberFett]

Uh huh huh, huh huh, huh huh. He said penal.

 

[Eli]

rofl bober..

Yeah, well the whole United States belonged to the Native Americans, and we stole it from them.

 

[Raspewtin]

Before the Native Americans took over, it belonged to bison and other large herbivores.

 

[cxim]

dabansh#t as usual got it wrong. It was never invaded & taken over.

It "belonged" to Mexico with a big maybe, as a gift from the frickin Pope, who had no idea where he was drawing frickin lines anyway.

Check out the early laws on Indian slavery & Chinese coolies & prostitution to learn about the great history of California.
