- I am in my mid 20's and currently back in school working towards my MFA in Creative Writing. I am excited about delving into my love for writing and mixing it with my passion for history.
Our nation would be nowhere without the explorers.
ReplyDeleteIf they hadn't come we would probably still be over here in America but we probably wouldn't have been over here for that long. I think we would still be over here but not for very long because the people wpuld've just found out about it.

Interesting...so, do you think we would speak English still??? Good job on your response, you will get 20 points towards your Blog grade ( I will explain what that means tomorrow :) ).
ReplyDeleteIf we didn't explore the U.S then, we probably wouldn't be as 'high tech' as we are now. We probably wouldn't have all the stuff that we did and there might still be some native American groups living in the wild like they did then. -Shelby Watson
ReplyDeleteOur nation would not be very far at all. If the explorers did not locate us we would probably still be hunting our food and wearing animal skins as clothing. We would probably also all be using the same religion.

If it wasn't for the brave and hard working explores we may not even be here today. They suffered through hardships such as lack of food and supplies. Also even if a great explorer like Columbus didn't find this nation or if he didn't tell anyone about it some other explorer would of found out and they would of come over to claim this land and call it there own.

Those who are mixed in families would probably not be alive and whoever is alive would not be as far into Geography as we are. Since the people of the world are progressing so quickly, though, someone else would have probably discovered America and founded it. As well as that we would have been in Europe, Asia, Africa or Australia if we were alive. Friends would not be made, and most likely if we did not have the room to breed, we might even be extinct!
ReplyDeletewe probably still would be in england or france or spain.We also may be an indian.HUNTER WHITNEY
ReplyDeleteWe might not be here today if no one discovered America. People would live where their ancestors came from and some of us would have not met each other.We would have different friends live in a different environment and go to different schools. Maybe some of us wouldn't be alive because our parents might not have ever met.
ReplyDeleteSomeone else would have explored the new world.If not then we would be still in England talking with an accent!We wouldn't have anyhistory to learn and study about:/. It definatly would't be the same thats why the explorers are and will always be an important part of out history.
ReplyDeleteWe probably wouldn't be so advanced as we are now. Well, we would still have microwaves,ovens,stoves & things like that. We would still be here because more than 1 person came to america. So if one person did then eventually someone else would.
ReplyDeleteIf explorers hadn't come to the Americas then America would still have Native Americans and alot of us would still be in the country of our origins. Also, technology would probably not be advancing as quickly as it is today.
ReplyDeletewhy dont u think we would be so advanced shelby?
ReplyDeleteIf the explorers had not come, we wouldn't speak English. We would speak one of the Native American languages. But eventually someone would have found this land and then we might have spoken enlish or something else.

If the explorers hadn't found us,someone else would have eventually. But if no one did,we would possibly speak anoter language like one of the American Inians' language depending on where our ancestors lived. Our nation wouldn't be as smart with all the technology. Also, mixed familes probably wouldn't be alive and and those that arent already are, would be American Indians.
ReplyDeleteIf the explorers didnt come then, they probably still would have came later. We might not have things like cell-phones & laptops. Probably no one would know a much stuff as we know now. We wouldnt have as much things to learn about in school:)
ReplyDeleteI think Heather posed a good question. Why wouldn't we be advanced if the explorers never came?
ReplyDeleteBecause the explorers had a lot of gadgets that we did not have at the time. And if the explorers did not come over and introduce these kind of gadjets we would not be advanced.

ALLIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am glad the explorers came. I woulnt be here if they didnt. But then again, I am part Cherrokee indian. But I am also part Irish, English, and something else that i cant remember so i still could have not been here and the world would have one less #1 reader!!!! I also agree with Shelby W. If they didnt come they would have to come sooner or later because they would run out of room! Thank you for coming when you did so that we could have laptops!
