Part E: America at a Glance and Main Indian Tribes

North America is a vast and varied land, with high mountains, salty deserts, dense forests and swamps. The Climate varies from icy cold in the Arctic in the north to hot climate in the south. For thousands of years this has been the home of these Natives tribes or Nations, each with its own way of life, customs, traditions and beliefs. Due to the difference in environment each Native American nation had its own way to find food, to build homes and making clothes. Each had also their own system of government, different ways to deal with properties, work and war.
