@badcornflakes6374 6 лет назад

Well, I don't know about that. Where I grew up (Auburn, California) was named Auburn because of "Au" is the element name for gold and burn is, I guess they would melt it. Cities like Los Angeles have a different history. This gold Rush coincides with northern California cities, such as San Francisco.

There is a mistake in the vid. In the beginning, you show a boat going through the Panama Canal, but the Panama Canal was not completed until 1914. Construction didn't even start until 1899

@mr_radioactive2929 7 лет назад

Potato Pal you have a very keen eye. But there is an explanation for this. The ships would sail to panama, then the people heading to California would cross panama, then sail from panama's west coast to America.
