People first came to the North American continent from Asia across what was then a land bridge in the Bering Strait. They arrived as much as 30,000 years ago. There is some evidence that others arrived from Polynesia and Europe long before Columbus sailed to the region. By 10,000 years ago they occupied most of North and South America.
It is difficult to estimate the number of North Americans in pre-Columbian times - from 900,000 to several million. Once Europeans arrived the population dropped by about 90% from diseases the Europeans brought with them to purposeful killings of the natives. Since the mid 20th century the Native Americans and First Nations (in Canada) have worked to revive their cultures and correct historical inaccuracies.
