By 1733 European settlers occupied 13 colonies along the Atlantic coast. The
colonists in America didn't want to depend on the English King or on England and
the War of Independence began.
It lasted from 1775 till 1783.
In 1776 on the 4th of July the Declaration of Independence was adopted. It
proclaimed "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness as the human natural rights."
In 1783 the Treaty of Paris recognized the independence of the USA. In 1787 the
Constitution of the USA was written. In 1789 on the 6th of April Americans elected
the first President of the United States of America. George Washington served two
terms (1789-1797). The newly-built capital of the country was named Washington.
Then other important events followed. The Civil War began in 1861 and lasted
until 1865. It was the war for abolition of slavery.
In the period between 1800 and 1900 the US changed from a small farming
nation to a big industrial country. Between 1900 and 1945 the US went through a
period of economic growth and hard times. The nation took part in the First World
War and the Second World War.
In 1969 on the 20th of July the American spaceship landed on the Moon. It was
the first man's walk on the Moon.
And each period in the history of the USA is interesting and important. It shows
the hardships and victories of the American people on the way to the American
Dream: independent, democratic, powerful state with the developed economy and
equal rights for everybody.
