Pre-Columbian and Colonial Americas

Kingdoms, confederations and chiefdoms of the pre-Columbian Americas together with the colonial polities of British North America, spanning the Andean Kingdom of Chimor and the Muisca Confederation of the eastern Colombian highlands, the Maya kingdoms and cities of Tikal, Calakmul, Caracol and Mayapan, the five Taino chiefdoms of Hispaniola, Jaragua, Maguana, Marien, Higuey and Magua, and the Dominion of Canada together with the eleven British American colonial provinces from Massachusetts Bay and New York to the two Carolinas and Georgia, none of them kingdoms or principalities by type but each a historical polity of the Americas recorded in this subcategory. A member is placed here by its own territory sitting in the Americas, spanning the region from before Columbus's arrival through the colonial era to Confederation-era Canada.
