Thematic Map

This is a thematic map of the USA and the theme division is of people who are American Indian and Alaska Native alone in 2000. The map explains where this cultural group of people were situated in the United States, and conveys an overall image of where these people were displaced during that period of time. One pattern of the map, is that there were many more Indian & Alaskan Natives on the West Coast than the East Coast. Particularly California and Arizona have a large amount, mainly due to the reservations that the US Government placed these people on, when we kicked them off their land.
