North American populace groupsA Story by neurostar burns Some populace groups have moved and some remain in one area for long periods of time. Most populations emigrate to settle in available land in early years to set up communities which will live with common, familiar social values. Hawaiian/Islanders: Most of Pacific islands were settled centuries ago. Some had mixed populations depending on who arrived, most were settled and enculturated by an original group which usually continued social values of their the land or their origin, mostly Hawaiian, China or Japan, or Korea and eastern Siberia. Many original populaces have other nationalities mixed in. Likely, some traveled further and reached the west coast of the western hemisphere over 600 years ago. Usually a kind of ancestor and familial organization is set up. Their outward social ways are casual and sharing. They live peaceful lives and don't abhor variation but are likely to adapt. Some members continue the older way of Matriarchy in social order. They do uphold a tighter standard to themselves of social organization and some kinds of social interaction. They do lay some stress on some conformities, at least for appearance. Native Hawaiians are, like others, endangered in familial lineage survival. In a little over a century ago, some islander members have migrated to the mainland of North America and live in mostly urban areas of the west coast, setting up their own neighborhoods and communities. A few moved inland to live. Currently, members can be found coast to coast. First Nation/native American: Largely believed to arrive in the continent overland probably from Siberia (although some may be traced to bold Pacific island hopping). Presence is traced back to 30,000 years at least. Most were then wandering hunters and gatherers, some were fishermen. From the north, some followed the rugged west coast and settled in various places, while others continued south. Others from Siberia travel more inland in present Canada and settled the inland area. Notable is the variation of languages throughout the continent. Abodes were adjusted for climate and environment conditions, e.g. long houses, tepees. In North America, some had made large organizations and structures (not many survive to this day to be assessed). Toward central America, several groups had highly organized societies and built many structures, some remain on land and some are currently submerged. Most of the people (or "human beings") lived simply on the land. Exploited nature very little. Were used to hard labor. Some sprouted astounding leaders. Most nations have for centuries, strove to live independently at least culturally, and most still do to date. Now found in many societies in an integrated way, most have kept the agricultural mode of living and most feel uncomfortable in urban settings. East Asians: Usually also referred to as 'Orientals'. Records indicate Orientals came to North America in the 1870's. Although some studies indicate earlier and especially from South or Central America. Family oriented and somewhat private, the people built into neighborhoods or communities. Most are fiscally and socially conservative and tend to follow traditions based from their homelands. Now, more are found integrated as americans. They can be found in most areas. Intrepid lifestyle: Smatterings of recordings by native americans and archeological findings indicate the foreboding terrain of the northeast of North America had early settlements around Labrador, Newfoundland (and possibly south of Maine) by the Norse. They love boats and traveling. (Probably the houseboat cultures are stemmed primarily from the Nordic people, although others also practice that style). They tend to be fiscally and socially conservative and retain labor intensive practices. Like other Scandanavians, many tend to locate in simular environments as their homeland. Russians: Russians have been present in the far north of the continent at least since the 1800's. They endured the rugged coast as they had on their homeland. Most strongly believe in family and community living, they have interspersed settlements and centralize very little. Locally they may follow matriarchy styles. Their housing structure styles have been seen far south on the west coast and mid California. They had much influence in Alaska and at times were the most civilizing populace in the 19th century along the west coast. They do organize for primary reasons but leave a strong sense of rugged individualism which will not bend to being compelled by agency. The individualism can at times lead into unpredictability or standout personalities. (work in progress)
