First Nation tends to refer to Canadian nations but it's growing in the US as a commonly accepted term. Aboriginal tends to refer to Australian Indigenous but is also used as a generic term in both Canada in the US.
I would punch someone if they ever used the last two around me. I'll add Sq*** to the punchable offences.

I wish I could find the article but a lot of the false claims of Native history also have to do with land claims back in the day, so there was an agenda to it and then it became part of mythology. Also, 23&Me type apps can't differentiate between Native American and Indigenous South American so basically it means you have DNA from someone that could be from the top of Ellesmere Island to the tip of Argentina.
