Between 1607 and 1776 it's British history, after 1776 it's American history.
Actually during the 1600s it’s mainly just English history.
Scotland and England didn’t properly unite until the early 1700s
What is 1607?
Founding of Jamestown with about 100 people, first English settlement In NA.
Oh cool, yeah that's certainly interesting and important history.
1776 is just so much more exciting though!
... The year Jamestown was founded.
