America before colonization.... I've never seen this map in my entire 25 years of formal education. Not in one history book or one lesson. This is not a mistake... Representation matters!!! Amazing:)

Genocide, exploitation, and theft sanctified in the name of "Christian" religion, the ancillary rewards for spreading the gospel to uncivilized heathens. Cue music and Ms. Williams--"You think you own whatever land you land on. The earth is just a dead thing you can claim."

sadly all these native peoples were pushed off their land by arrogant British, Dutch, French , Spanish, Royals who figured by their decree the land was now theirs.

Thanks Antory for sending facts from down under, known those before a long time ago but as I can say "a forbidden" thing. For a civilized country.

It's a shame about Australia's aboriginal societies as well. And I thought the U.S. was bad about trying to erase history.

Anyone who's interested should try and find some documentation, any documentation anywhere, that defines the territories occupied by Australia's aboriginal people...you won't find any, nothing, zero, zilch, because we didn't even recognise them as people/humans AND count them in the Federal census until 27th May 1967. At least north America could produce this map, fluid borders or not.

I hope no is naive enough to think those borders didn't move around a lot. Those weren't all peaceful tribes in complete harmony with nature.

I've seen several of these territories before but never this inclusive!

In January, an Ontario Court ordered the Canadian government to turn over all residential school archival documents to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

Aboriginal Canadians were not only subjected to nutritional experiments by the federal government in the 1940s and 1950s but were also used as medical test subjects,

The residential schools system, which ran from the 1870s until the 1990s, removed about 150,000 aboriginal children from their families and sent them to church-run schools under a deliberate policy of "civilizing" First Nations.

Many students were physically, mentally and sexually abused. Some committed suicide. Mortality rates reached 50 per cent at some schools.

In the 1990s, thousands of victims sued the churches that ran the schools and the Canadian government.

The $1.9-billion settlement of that suit in 2007 prompted an apology from Prime Minister Stephen Harper followed by the creation of the commission in 2008.

That's history and hide the truth is useless.

The Map above doesnt look so Unusual and from what i know the accuracy isnt that bad and represents first Nation people and their tribes...The early settlers soon got an idea over the next 100 years just were first Nations tribes lived and there rough borders.

How could such a map ever have been drawn up, pre-dating cartography as it purports to do? That is not to cast doubt on the events following 'colonisation', just questioning the historical accuracy & origin of the map.

We destroyed thousands of years of history in only a few hundred.

Just shows you how America and Canada were before... The land grab.

I have never seen a map like this either, in 16 years of school. It's a shame that schools were so "vague" about First Nations peoples; I wonder if they still are in the U.S.

Thank you for posting this. It's news to me too. It's breath-taking to ponder what happened to all those souls; they were treated shamefully.

Jake, thanks for your comment and (again) I don't really mean anything special with this blog, one friend of mine sent it to me and I think it's very interesting. It could be a map from Indo-Chine 50 years ago or maybe longer, from my region. But it's the same, as you said, native people have been treated without the respect all over the world and we should start to respect finally -or being respecting already. In another blog I said very strong words what's happening now in the world (Isis) and behind that opinion I stand while it's against my deep thoughts. But must think all the people living here in a big ball and all of us has the right to do that. One religion in a wrong way can't decide that. Peace and hugs!
