Printing: Print at 100% / actual size on A4 or US Letter. Inside pages use light backgrounds and print well in black and white; covers are dark, so start from page 2 to save ink.

Every fact is checked against named source pages from Britannica, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History and the Department for Education (checked 3 Nov 2026), and the sources are listed on the pack’s credits page.
