What is meant by the "shot heard round the world"? Explain using information previously learned.

The shot heard round the world" is a phrase that refers to the opening shot of the battles of Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775, which began the American Revolutionary War and led to the creation of the United States of America.

1. By 1876, approximately 10,000 people populated the Hills. Mining camps were established near Custer, Hill City and Deadwood, and as the gold rush continued, it gave rise to the lawless town of Deadwood, which rapidly reached a population of nearly 5,000.

2. When the Transcontinental Railroad was completed in 1869, it accelerated the decimation of the species and by 1900, naturalists estimated less than 1,000 bison remained. By the late 1880s, the endless herds of bison were wiped out and just a few hundred individuals remained.

3. About 30% of the 5.2 million Native Americans in this country live on reservations, including 0.5 million in PWNA's service area (2010 Census). Living conditions on the reservations have been cited as “comparable to Third World.”

4. Low qualities of life exist in developing countries as well as developed countries, including the United States. Within the 326 Native American reservations in the U.S., Indigenous peoples experience unequal life conditions. Those on reservations face discrimination, violence, poverty and inadequate education.

5. Many Native Americans carry on their ancestors' customs through beadwork, painting, sculpture, and ledger art. The preservation of this artwork is a beautiful way to celebrate the culture itself. By offering opportunities to learn the craft, we can assure that it is preserved.
