Description

The United States' boundaries have expanded over the centuries—and at the same time, Americans' ideas about their country have grown as well. The nation the world knows today was shaped by centuries of thinkers and events. The people who lived in the Southern colonies were successful and prosperous Americans, with an identity of their own. They helped shape America into the country it is today.
