late edit: DISCLAIMER: The pictured map is not actually a representation of the territories before colonisation. It’s a hypothetical map of what countries there might have been had the continent not been colonised, thus all the names and borders are fictional and have never existed.
For good actual maps, check out native-land.ca.
This map has some really weird boundaries that totally don’t match reality. Here’s a more accurate map: https://native-land.ca/
That is a well designed map. Kudos to the creator.
It even has a filter for language distribution over geography!
That makes me so happy and sad at the same time.
Yeah the map is shit but I appreciate someone pointing this out right now while there is a peak in awareness of the struggle of colonized people.
It’s unfortunate that people only start talking about it when something like what is happening in Palestine breaks news for being so especially horrifying.
The fact is that this shit is going on right in our own back yard and has been for centuries and we should absolutely have solidarity with Palestine and their fight against the genocidal Zionist entity but we must also recognize that we have an important responsibility to fight against the bigger genocidal settler colonial entity that enables them and that is the US.
Bookmarked, this is amazing
Also, the Anasazi died out centuries before Europeans arrived.

Works fine on mobile Firefox for me
Working fine for me, and on mobile too
Not sure if you’re on mobile or desktop, but it works perfectly for me in Firefox on mobile. Screenshot here
Holy cow! This is awesome! Thank you very much for sharing this here!
Even this map is questionable, especially in all of eurasia.
The Sami do not predate the Scandinavians.
