Location
USA is located in North America, bordering both the North Atlantic Ocean and the North Pacific Ocean, between Canada and Mexico.
The history of the United States traditionally starts with the Declaration of Independence in the year 1776. The largest settlements were by the English on the East Coast, starting in
1607. By the 1770s the Thirteen Colonies contained two and half million people, were
prosperous, and had developed their own political and legal systems. The British government's threat to American self-
government led to war in 1775. With major military and financial support from France, the patriots won the American Revolution.
In 1789 the Constitution became the basis for the
United States federal government, with war hero George Washington as the first
president. The young nation continued to struggle with the scope
of central government and with European influence, creating the first
political parties in the 1790s, and fighting a second war for
independence in 1812. The 1860 election of Abraham Lincoln, who called
for no more expansion of slavery, triggered a crisis as eleven slave states
seceded to found the Confederate States of America in 1861.
Barack Obama is the First African-American president in American history. He is the 44th president. He was elected to the Illinois Senate in 1996 and U.S. Senate in 2004. Barack Obama became the president of the United States of America in 2009.
