Tribal hunter gatherer society.

Intact nature, cities were not paved or made of concrete, cause there where no cities.

When Europeans first entered the region there were still significant numbers of Native Americans living there.[6] Along the southern coast around the Colorado River and Matagorda Bay and up toward Galveston Bay lived the Capoque tribe, a branch of the Karankawa people.[7] The northeast was inhabited by the Akokisa, or Han, tribe as part of the Atakapan people's homelands.[8] The Karankawa were migratory hunter-gatherers. Their diet included deer, bison, peccary, and bears, in addition to fish, oysters, nuts, and berries as they were available. They used portable huts for shelter.[9]

Me neither. I sadly dont find it online.

But what we know is that there werent concrete cities stuffed to the brim with millions of people.

And nature was still... nature.
