Who claimed the french territory in north America?
The French had the largest quantity of land than any other single European nation. They controlled most of what is today Canada, and the territory known as the Louisiana territory which spread from the Mississippi river to the Rocky Mountains. Eventually the French would lose much of their Canadian territories to the British, and would sell the Louisiana territory to the Young Nation of the United States of America in the Louisiana purchase.

I didn't really understand your question but I think you mean the order of which they came in. First came the Maya, then the Aztec, and then the Inca :)
Of course that was the order of their creation. There was a period where their empires existed simultaneously.
How did landowners and aristocrats view wealthy members of the middle class?
Landowners looked down on those who had made their fortunes in the "vulgar" business world. Not until late in the 1800s were rich entrepreneurs considered the social equals of the lords of the countryside.

What where the pioneers living conditions like?
I imagine pioneers had an interesting, busy life if they had the constitution to completely change their life style after arriving in a different country. Depending on their circumstances before they immigrated, they might have had to do physical labour in comparison to their employment (or lack of) in their home country. Most of the farming pioneers were poor, so their clothes were usually home made, the food would be grown on the property cleared after the sod hut/home was built, animals were kept for their usefulness or as food, neighbours lived far away but were depended on for assistance and company & all family members were expected to work to support life in a new country. Pioneers were very brave to face so many unknowns far from their familes and friends.
Nobody "started" slavery, it has been a part of the human condition since cave man days. When someone would conquer another, the conqueror would take some of the conquered as slaves.
The first Africans were brought to an English colony in 1619. A Dutch slave ship which had been trying to get to Spanish territory got blown off course and put in at Jamestown. They sold their human cargo there. The English settlers did not actually enslave those Africans though. Instead they made indentured servants of them and when their indentures were up the Africans were given land and tools just like any English indentured servant. Some things I have read say they were even given the right to vote. After that, more slavers began putting in to Jamestown but the English gradually changed the nature of the indentures, making them longer and longer for the Africans until finally they just started enslaving them outright.
That does explain U.S. Historical slave trading. Slavery has been apart of civilization since the beginning of civilization or perhaps before. (civilization came later at first man just roamed free) Anyway, there were slaves in Egypt thousands of years ago known as the Israelites; today's Jewish people. Before that slavery most certainly existed and there is no way to pinpoint the first slave or first slave trader etc.
Antao Goncalves and Nuno Tristao are considered to be the first Europeans to have obtained black slaves from Africa in 1441.

How did they discover America?
The continent now known as America was "discovered" by several entities. Among these are the Vikings, the Chinese, an Italian named Christopher Columbus who was working for the Spanish, possibly Polynesians, and ancestors of the Japanese the Ainu (Kennewick Man). Traditional archeology has it that nomads coming across the Bering straits were the first inhabitants, so the first "discoverers" may have been ancestors of the Mongols and Russian tribes.
What does the push-pull theory explain in geography?
The push-pull theory refers to relationships and means that when you seem disinterested or actively mean to someone, but punctuate it with periods of interest and affection, you will attract that person to you.

Which continent did the first people origianally live?
The most likely continent for first occupation by humans is Africa, specifically the northwest corner of the African continent. This is the scientific answer, well supported by fossil evidence. Humans, very much like today's people, seem to have existed there up to 1.5 million years ago.
Somewhere around 150,000 years ago they seem to have migrated beyond Africa into the middle east, India, and China.
The last continent (not counting Antarctica) to be occupied was South America.

Answer #2:
I'm not sure anybody knows. 'Toltec' is (I am fairly sure) an Aztec word meaning 'Builders' (of the existing monuments when the Aztecs arrived from points north). Difficult to date stone.
Pennsylvania's state government contains many well-qualified individuals. Its government holds approximately twenty of the state's finest politicians.
Does social class still exist?
Actually it does. Not an actual, physical social class, but a mental one. Lets use a public school as an example. They have preppies,jocks,geeks, then outcasts. The preppies usually only associate with other preppies, the jocks only hang with other jocks, the geeks chill with other geeks, and the outcasts (the lowest"class") only chat with other outcasts. Catch my drift? (understand)?
