The Continent of North America

Wikapedia.org says that The lake is shared by the province of Ontario to the north in Canada, the states of Minnesota to the west, Wisconsin and Michigan to the south in the United States. It is generally considered the largest freshwater lake in the world by surface area. It is the world's third-largest freshwater lake by volume and the largest by volume in North America.

The five Great Lakes (Lake Erie. Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, Lake Ontario. And Lake Superior) in North America are the largest group of freshwater lakes in the world.

First, sediment samples and animal remains from the Bering Sea prove that the Beringia was habitable at the height of the ice age or 21,000 years ago. According to Elias: “humans did not survive the last ice age’s peak in northeastern Siberia, and yet there is no evidence they had reached Alaska or the rest of the New World either” (Elias). At this point, Elias’s theorizes that people lived on the Beringia, a 600 mile wide area between Siberia, Russia, and Alaska. Furthermore, “sediment cores” (Elias), from the Bering sea indicate that the

Montana is famous as the headwaters state because the waters that flows to the rest of the United States comes from the Montana mountains. The Flathead Rivers, Clark Fork, Bitterroot, Blackfoot, and Kootenai is connected to the Columbia River which flows into the Pacific Ocean. Montana’s two largest lakes are the Fort Peck and Flathead. Idaho is on the west border of Montana, South Dakota and North Dakota to the east and Wyoming to the south. Canada is on Montana’s northern border.

- Because Spain and Portugal were rivals, they were always trying to out beat each other. Since the Portuguese set up trading posts in Africa first, other European countries started and later on Spain set up posts too. Because the Portuguese didn’t like taking water routes, it took them longer to get to India through land to get spices and jewels. While this was happening, the Spanish people became unified and seeing that they were now stronger, planned to outstrip their rivals of the Indian

The first glaciers circulated south from what is now Canada. From what I’ve researched the Great Lakes were once riverbeds, which provided the glaciers perfect passage to the south.

Michigan’s landscape over the past millions of years was formed from glaciers. During the last Ice Age, which was approximately two million years ago during the Pleistocene Epoch, glaciers covered some of Michigan and went through cycles of advancing in a southern direction (towards The Midwest of The United States) and recession back towards Canada. These cycles of alternating temperature led to the formation of

It began 2 million years ago, Canada and the upper U.S. were covered in glaciers. All the repeated melting and freezing of the glaciers created thousands of cavities in the Canadian Shield, which were filled with melted glacier water which created the Great Lakes (and many other rivers and lakes). In the west, there used to be a HUGE lake (Lake Bonneville) but it drained into the Pacific Ocean through rivers and dried out

The city that I chose to discuss about is Ottawa, Ontario. Ottawa is located 99km north of the southern border and is in Southeastern Ontario. The longitudes and latitudes of Ottawa is 42.42 degrees north and 75.69 degrees west.

North America was a region in the world that was new to many especially the settlers who’d later live there. For thousands of years this region was unknown until men from other countries began traveling from sea to see this part of the world they never knew about. These people who came to what is now known as the United States of America sought to establish a new life. Before the English, Spanish and French colonies stepped foot on North America there were already Indian tribes who inhabited the land. Soon after reaching this land colonist began to settle in and began working and living. Each colony struck an alliance with the native tribes who lived near them. At the same time the colonists weren’t on good terms. The primary role of the Indians
