I. Being an American Pgs. 4-6 About 13 percent of Americans were born in another country (immigrants) and about 98 percent come from families who were immigrants at one time. Native Americans, the first residents of what is now the United States, included many separate groups with distinct cultures.

In the 1500s, settlers first came to North America from Spain and settled in what is now Florida and the Southwest. In the 1600s, settlers from France and England began coming to North America. The English settled mainly along the east coast, where they formed the thirteen colonies. In the late 1600s and the 1700s, immigrants began arriving from Germany, Ireland, Scotland, the Netherlands, and Sweden.
