Dammit, don't you guys have editors? Mexico is not in South America, a mistake repeated at least twice. And it is an atlatl not an at-a-latl. And, by Tlaloc, an atlatl as thick as a 2X4 is terribly inefficient. Get it right or I'll quit watching.

I agree with you, Mexico is in NA, but the accepted spelling for the device is atlatl.

Yeah there's editors. And the editors aren't the people who make those decisions, other people look that stuff up. And usually mistakes are caught. It takes a lot of work to make a TV show. So watch it and be entertained, dammit.

Alot of historians lump the country Mexico in with South America. I am in America and my school teachers did that all the time. It is not just the history channel it is like all of the historians in America. They always imply or say that Mexico is south America but the thing is they don't really mean that Mexico is apart of south America they just say that to fit Mexico in with a continent. Because Mexico can't just sit there by itself.

Old Mexico included Cali, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, Nuevo Mejico, Colorado, Wyomin, Montana, Tejas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, etc, in other words, most of what it is US today. By the way:
The Imperial government wants Americans to see: UFO hog-wash, Ax Men bravado, and Ice Road trucker follies, than anything like real history to been shown on this channel such as:
(1750–1816), New Granadan Great Colombian and later Venezuelan generalissimo revolutionist, born in Caracas. Miranda served in the Spanish army as a young man. Charged with defeating the largest British Army yet known in history in the Battle of Mobile, AL in 1781, and financed the Navy commanded by Francisco DeGrass to block the British Navy in the Battle of Yorktown in 1981. Generalissimo Miranda who wanted American help as a form of compensation for his giving of liberty to Americans from the British, to help him liberate the Spanish colonies, was betrayed by the leaders of the American Revolution. Later he went to London, where he tried unsuccessfully to interest the British government in the creation of an independent empire in Spanish colonies, but the British were resentful of Miranda’s actions during the American Revolution and did not want to support any liberation of Spanish colonies. From 1792 to 1798 he served in the army of revolutionary France. After participating in several battles, and saving France from her enemies, Miranda was enshrined in the Arch of Triumph in Paris, but the French would not go to war with Spain to liberate the Spanish Colonies. Neither did Catherine the Great of Russia after Generalissimo Miranda conquered the Crimean from the Turkish Empire and gave her as gift to Catherine who always wanted that Turkish Province and access of her empire to a warm port in the Black Sea. In 1806 he alone, without the support of any European or American led an expedition that attempted successfully to overthrow the Spanish regime in Venezuela. In 1810, on the outbreak of a revolution in that country, Miranda became the commander of the patriotic forces. He defeated the Spanish armies, and in April 1812 became dictator of Venezuela. He was compelled by the continuing betrayal of the leaders of the American Revolution who did not want him recognized as the father of the new country USA, thus wanted him dead, to surrender him to the Spanish royalists after which lived only three months (there is a statue of Miranda in Puerto Rico a the site where the Americans gave him to the Spanish); the Spanish took him from Puerto Rico to Spain where he was imprisoned until his death. Because of his independence for America, he is known globally as El Precursor (“The Forerunner”) or the obstetrician who delivered the new baby empire of America from the bloody British brutish mother country.
