John Cabot, An Englishman Essay

So he did so in 1608, he established the first French settlement in north America called Quebec later followed by two more Trios- Rivieres (founded 1634) and Montreal (1642). why'll he was building Quebec they encountered native Americans called the Huron Indians. They helped the French get up on their feet by trading them furs for their European goods. This then established a peace treaty an a steady income for the slowly growing settlements. However, with this steady fur income the new settlements really never grew their society in the 1660's, the three settlements combined only had around 3'200 people. In the begin of the development of the settlements they were runned by the Company of New France. This later changed when King Louis XIV disbanded it for not showing any progress towards the settlements. He then took direct control over the colonies and established a more military secure region among the colonies. So France build multiple colonies in the western hemisphere that had great economies and political power, but the French really had a hard time establishing societies and growing their population. This would result in lower income from the west, but the French knew it was there so they didn't give up on

Everyone has been broken. Maybe some people still are and maybe others have been put back together by friends or loved ones. The fact still remains that everyone is or has been broken, and there is no way to stop that from happening. In Brian Selznick’s book, The Invention of Hugo Cabret, he touches on this topic on nearly every page. Many - if not all - his characters are broken in some way or another.

The French were less successful then both the Spanish and the British because they were late to jump to the gun on the race to claim land in the new world, by time the French stared colonizing the new world the British had already settled on the east coast, and the Spanish in south America, so basically they had to take what is now known as Canada by default, because that is all that was left.

Although, Hudson’s whereabouts before 1607 are unknown, historians can still analysis the life events during the known time of Hudson existence. Between 1607 and the year Hudson died, 1611, Bumsted identifies three major event. The first of these events occurred in 1608 when Quebec gained the resident buildings by Samuel de Champlin. Champlin established a new trading post on the St. Lawrence and during the first year of building the new habitations, it went under attack. Fortunately, the post lasted and in the progress, Champlin associated with the First Nations; however, this led the French into violence against the Iroquois. During the same year, the outline of the arrangement to colonize New France started. Second, in Newfoundland, the first English incomers settled in Newfoundland in 1610. The arrival of the Europeans impacted the First Nations people greatly. The impact that the diseases, such as measles, smallpox, typus, and typiod, altered the lives of the First Nations people; Before the Europeans brought these disease to the continent of what is now Canada, the First Nations people were not immune to them and it caused tremendous damage to their communities. And finally, Frobisher’s voyage to the Northwest Passage inspired the great explorer, Henry Hudson. Within Bumsted, it mentions that Hudson was hired to explore the passage to Asia and in the progress he ended entering the Hudson Bay. Bumsted also mentions that the exploration that Hudson sailed was exceptional and it his search was a best known voyage In comparison to Bumsted, Henry Hudson’s biography references that he missed no prospect of landmarks on Quebec and the Diggs Island into the Hudson Bay itself. The biography mentions that Hudson succeeded in setting the further north record on his voyage, but the search for the Northeast Passage was not successful. Furthermore, when studying the biography of Henry

British empire was in control of Canada, “a deep and complex transformation.” (Calloway, 112) British empire envision North America with field of action while the French spent the next two decade revenging on their loss with the Seven Years’ War and Treaty of Paris. Even though the French did not succeed in North America, eventually they migrated towards large swaths of Canada, The Great Lakes, and Mississippi Valley using their social systems and culture to survive. “The Interior French”, (Calloway, 123) were French-Canadian who lived beyond the Great Lakes country. They had formed an alliance within the Indians and having a good reputation with dealing goods. Louisiana went to Spain eventually, a few French migrated to Louisiana as a Peace of Paris. More settlers were French in Louisiana during the Spanish era instead of the French. Louisiana changes hand in Paris a couple times in 1763.

Colonists from France came to Canada and settled in Acadia also known as present day east coast colonies during the seventeenth century. The name given to the French colonists from the time of arrival to Canada was the “Acadians”. The Acadians from France continued their formal lifestyle by farming, fishing and maintaining a close family oriented culture in Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick. The Acadians had created a prosperous agriculture economy up until the late eighteenth century, when there was a colonial struggle in power between the French and the British. British had conquered Port Royal and the Acadians refused to recognize British rule, wanting to keep their religious freedom and not wanting to

Cartier’s thorough explorations of the St. Lawrence Gulf created the main gateway for Europeans to access North America (Ages of Exploration - Jacques Cartier).

E. In 1621, the British king, James I declared that Acadia belonged to Britain. He sent a Scottish lord, Sir William Alexander, and changed the name to Nova Scotia (New Scotland). The Scottish settlers arrived and built a new fort called Charles Fort near the ruins of Champlain's habitation.

That being said the early century of eighteenth brought a substantial change happened to the French-speaking citizens of Acadia, in which today is called Nova Scotia and New Brunswick (BIG BOOK CITE PAGE 97) The Treaty of Utrecht was indorsed in 1713 and brought to an end the War of Spanish Succession between England and France. During this time of era, the economy of New France started to embellishment, which was never seen before. Afterwards it came to a clash of the imperial wars of England endeavored to sub stain the increasing rivalry of French settlers Meanwhile Canada during this time era, was a successful conflict to the French. But later, when the crammed of the British military power was brought, the masses defended Canada, and went into downfall, and which cause the colony to be enduringly. (ARTICLE TO CITE). France agreed to give up all of its entitlements to the areas around the Hudson Bay, Newfoundland, and Acadia. Treaty denied the France to maintain certain fishing rights in Newfoundland and the exact range of the Hudson Bay lands were not defined. Although both England and France were agreeable to peace, the outstanding issues were to lead to a renewal of hostilities with the

The French established three colonies in North America during the 1600s and 1700s. Louisiana and Canada were two of the three colonies. The colony of Canada extended from the north east coast where New Foundland was, down to the Great Lakes. Canada had no real settlements, however, they had many posts which served as trading posts and military support. The colony experienced harsh winters and short growing seasons and because of this their farming efforts usually failed and populations never grew. Since they had little to no success in farming, their economy thrived on fur trade with natives. By creating close ties with the natives they were able to trade metal goods for fur and then craft the fur and later profit from it. In the 1660s the

In Europe many countries felt the need to take smaller, unconquered lands in order to spread and increase their power. Queen Elizabeth funded many expeditions, one being Sir Walter Raleigh’s voyage in July of 1585 to the island off the coast of what would later be called North Carolina. The Native Americans called this island Roanoke, but to nobody's surprise it was renamed by the English and called Virginia, named after the “Virgin” Queen Elizabeth. The colony on Roanoke failed within a year.

In the development of what is known today as Canada, during the Elizabethan era, there was a series was highly documented and, surprisingly, not well-known occurrences. The colonization of New France set the foundation for Canada. The early settlers grew as a nation while holding true to some teachings of the French. The French were originally on the search for an alternative route for Asia and instead stumbled upon what was soon to become their greatest achievement. The French set out to trade in Asia, but found ever-growing success from the new land, despite every complication.

The struggle for north america was mostly a battle for land in north america which was called the "Seven Years War" which was a worldwide conflict in 1756-1763 between Austria and its allies, including France, and Prussia and its allies including England. The colonists of north america included Samuel De Champlain of New France who traded furs, John Smith of Virginia who sought wealth, and John Winthrop of Massachusetts who sought religious freedom. Samuel De Champlain founded the first successful French settlement in north america and explored parts of what are now Canada and parts of the northern part of north america. He also returned to Canada in 1608 to establish and help lead the colony of Quebec. The French came to north america for a variety of

“New France was not merely the settlement of a few fur traders.” The Acadians were “a pastoral-like people who once formed a proud nation in a land called Acadia.” Although falling under the jurisdiction of “New France,” the Acadians governed separately than the rest of the country and were an independent entity within New France. Today, “the Acadians are the French speaking population of the Canadian Maritime provinces,” and these are the Acadians that were not displaced during the expulsions, under British rule. Acadia’s beginnings, with the construction of Port Royal, could have marked the colony for success, but instead, led to a troubling conclusion for the European descendents. Through failed leadership, two

The Portuguese settled in eastern Brazil, the French along the St. Lawrence River in present-day Canada, first explored by Jacques Cartier and then settled sixty years later by Samuel de Champlain. The English came to the New World late, after several failed expeditions by Walter Raleigh, Humphrey Gilbert, and Martin Frobisher. Once the Jamestown colony survived its first trials of starvation, disease, riots, and violence with the Powhatan tribe, the English expanded from this base up and down the eastern coast of North America.
