I mean, I want to say outgrow history, but the fact of the matter is, is sometimes the stories become history, even though they aren't factually accurate, like the Tim Pot hat.
Okay.
I mean, I am probably not fully educated in the history of how this country was taken over to speak about it super accurately.
No, I just mean from his perspective.
But yes, from our perspective, I can easily say you basically have European settlers coming over
and wanting to lay claim to land.
You have Native American countries.
You have Native American peoples.
You have Native American tribes that already exist here.
So there is, as we know, right, and again, how historically accurate is this, but there's a lot of trading.
There's Manhattan sold for beads, which again, maybe not exactly accurate, but you get the idea.
Yeah.
Europeans start coming in and basically making trades for different parts of the country as they continue to move westward.
All the while, of course, signing treaties where they say, we swear we're not going west of the Organes.
We swear we're not going west of the Ohio.
We swear.
And, of course, those then become violent confrontations.
Yes.
makes sense as has been true of all history.
Like that's the other part that I think is so important.
