    the Frontier looms over American cultural history we cared about the colonies until what--the Jefferson Administration? then we never hear about New England again, and the South only because of the war its all frontier culture after that

        Until the frontier went away, which strikes me as approximately the time we achieved manned spaceflight/"the final frontier". We still have bits and pieces thanks to biotech, fabtech, etc, but Current Year feels like it's mostly fighting over scraps.

        Needless to say, this makes me very sad. Frontiers absolutely exist but it feels like they're less and less part of the culture.

        This idea isn't new (not that I thought you were claiming it was). The Turner thesis has been around since 1893, just three years after the frontier was declared officially "closed."

        My grandfather, a professor of American history, thought rather highly of it.

        The American frontier officially 'closed' the same year the European powers carved up the 'great African cake.' I do not think this was a coincidence. Somehow the human collective mind needs a frontier.
