The first nations, or Indigenous peoples, are believed to have been present in North America for thousands of years, with evidence of habitation dating back at least 15,000 years. They developed diverse cultures and societies long before European contact, adapting to various environments across the continent. Each nation has its own unique history, traditions, and languages that reflect their deep connection to the land.

Some of the first nations are called countries.
First Nations peoples skillfully harvested beaver fur for various purposes, primarily to make warm clothing, such as coats and hats, due to its excellent insulation properties. They also used beaver pelts for trade with European settlers, exchanging them for goods like metal tools, firearms, and other supplies. Additionally, the fur held cultural significance, often being used in traditional ceremonies and artworks. Overall, beaver fur played a vital role in both the sustenance and economy of First Nations communities.
They traveled with canoes.
First Nations people began interacting with European explorers after the arrival of Christopher Columbus in 1492. The interactions increased as more European expeditions reached the Americas in the following centuries.
In Canada the First Nations are the peoples who were here before the arrival of the Europeans, including the English, except for some related peoples, the Inuit and the Métis. The Inuit (not First Nations) are the peoples who have been called 'Eskimos' who traditionally lived in the northernmost regions of Canada. The Métis are the peoples of mixed European and First Nations blood. In Canada, England is not considered a 'first nation'. It is the country from which some of the early colonists came after European discovery of the North American continent.
The term 'First Nations' refers to the groups of people that were native to Canada prior to the European settlements. The First Nations are also known as Indians (even more so in America), but it is an incorrect term that began being used after Columbus thought he arrived in India (rather than North America).
The first recorded European to see the Rocky Mountains was the Spanish explorer Francisco Coronado in the 16th century. However, indigenous peoples had inhabited and explored these mountains long before European arrival.
The arrival of Europeans had profound and often devastating effects on First Nations. Indigenous populations faced significant disruptions to their social structures, economies, and cultures due to colonization, disease, and conflict. Many First Nations experienced drastic declines in population due to diseases introduced by Europeans, for which they had no immunity. Additionally, European land claims and resource exploitation led to the loss of traditional territories and sovereignty, severely impacting their way of life.
Pearl Harbor..............The first arrival in the European theatre is their arrival in Morocco & Algeria (In Africa, of course) in Operation Torch. I might say the first battle was Kasserine, in Tunisia, but they had already fought the Japanese in the Guadalcanal invasion before that.............
The First Nations people began trading long before European contact, utilizing established networks that facilitated the exchange of goods like furs, tools, and food among different tribes. These trade routes often spanned vast distances, allowing for the sharing of resources and cultural practices. With the arrival of Europeans, the trade evolved, incorporating European goods like metal tools and firearms, which further transformed Indigenous economies and social structures. This exchange created complex relationships between First Nations and European settlers, impacting both cultures significantly.

After the arrival of the French, First Nations peoples adapted in several key ways. Firstly, they engaged in the fur trade, altering their traditional hunting practices to meet European demand for beaver pelts. Secondly, they often formed alliances with the French, which necessitated changes in political and social structures to navigate new relationships. Finally, the introduction of European goods, such as metal tools and firearms, led to shifts in their daily lives and cultural practices.

The development of Acadia resulted in the displacement and marginalization of the Mi'kmaq and other First Nations people who lived in the region. Their traditional way of life, culture, and connection to the land were disrupted by the arrival of European settlers, leading to significant changes in their lifestyle and cultural practices.
