"...if the native Americans lived in the western part of the USA?". This is a false fact.

The truth is that native American populations occupied every part of North, Central and South America. In the USA every modern state had native Americans living there before 1800, it was their land and they were the original, native inhabitants.

Anyone touring Connecticut or New York State today will have difficulty in visualising what those areas were like in the 1600s, but most of the native populations have either been wiped out, confined to small reservations or moved westwards to Oklahoma or north into Canada.
