Read the text and answer the questions.Today there are 23 countries in North, Central and South America. But five hundred years ago, a large area of South America- now Peru- was part of the Inca Empire. In Central America, the Maya people were important. And people in Mexico were part of the Aztec empire. In North America, there were different groups in different areas, for example the Apache, Navajo and Sioux. Today the name for the different groups is Native Americans (in the USA) or First Nations in Canada). The leaders of these people are still famous today- the last Inca leader Tupac Amaru, the Aztec Moctezuma and the Apache war hero, Geronimo, for example.

The Apache people were from the south and west of North America. Geronimo was the grandson of an important Apache leader. He was born on 16 June 1829. When Geronimo was a young man, there was a war between Mexico and the USA, and the Native Americans. At that time, his family's land was part of Mexico. Now, it's part of the United States.

Geronimo was an Apache war hero. From 1886 until 1909 he was a prisoner of war in the United States. But he was also a famous celebrity. He was with President Theodore Roosevelt on 4 March 1905- his first day as president.
