What If the US Wasn't Colonised? | Holly Fitzpatrick | TEDxFrancis Holland School Sloane Square

This talk explores the counterfactual question of what would have happened if large-scale colonisation had not occurred in the region which we now call the United States of America. This talk discusses how modern nations and borders are not inevitable, and are influenced by historical actions, political decisions, and geography. Holly Fitzpatrick is a student in the Lower Sixth studying Politics, Economics and Religious Studies. She hopes to study International Relations at university. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
