The document summarizes the first struggle between the British and French for control of the Atlantic colonies, focusing on the colony of Newfoundland. It discusses how the 1713 Treaty of Utrecht caused France to lose Acadia and Newfoundland to Britain. This was problematic for France as Newfoundland was an important fishing area and source of money. The French were left with smaller islands that did not generate as much revenue. In response, France established the fortress at Louisbourg on Cape Breton Island in the 1720s as a new fishing, naval, and commercial center. However, the British saw Louisbourg as a threat and built their own fortress at Halifax in 1749. Louisbourg ultimately proved weak and was captured twice by thePresentation1

The document summarizes the first struggle between the British and French for control of Atlantic colonies such as Newfoundland, Acadia, and Louisburg. This struggle affected the native populations. The Treaty of Utrecht in 1713 saw France lose control of Newfoundland and Acadia to Britain. However, the treaty did not fully stop the fighting between the two powers. France established a fortress at Louisburg on Cape Breton Island as a fishing, naval, and commercial center, but it was seen as a threat by Britain. In response, Britain built its own powerful naval base at Halifax in 1749 to protect its North American colonies from French and native attacks. Louisburg proved weak due to its construction and was captured twice by BritishExploration and Fur Trade of Western Canada

Captain James Cook was the first European explorer to set foot on what is now British Columbia. He explored the coast in 1778, meeting native peoples but missing key locations like Juan de Fuca Strait. He died in 1779 in Hawaii on his third voyage of exploration. Alexander Mackenzie worked for the North West Company and in 1793 became the first person to cross North America north of Mexico. In 1789 he explored the river that now bears his name, reaching the Arctic Ocean. In 1793 he reached the Pacific Ocean but was turned back by hostile natives. Simon Fraser worked for the Hudson's Bay Company and in 1811 was the first European to travel the entire length of the Columbia River.The house of representatives

The Enlightenment was a philosophical movement that applied scientific reasoning to human society. Key thinkers like Isaac Newton, John Locke, and philosophers called "Philosophes" used reason to critique religious and political institutions and argue for ideas like separation of powers, religious tolerance, and equality. Their works spread new ideas through growing publications and salons, though most Europeans still identified as Christian. The Enlightenment had wide-ranging effects on science, politics, economics, and society.The renaissance in the north

Philip II of Spain assembled a huge naval force called the Spanish Armada to invade England in 1588, in response to English attacks on Spanish ships and cities, but the Spanish Armada was defeated by the English navy, marking the beginning of the decline of the Spanish empire. Religious wars erupted between Catholics and Protestants in France, culminating in the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre, until Henry IV converted to Catholicism while still granting religious toleration. Louis XIII strengthened the French monarchy by appointing the powerful Cardinal Richelieu as his advisor and designating the young Louis XIV as the next king.Struggles for north america

French explorers and fur traders claimed land from Quebec to the Great Lakes and down the Mississippi to Louisiana, though the population grew slowly. The 13 English colonies saw early settlers establish Jamestown, Virginia in 1607 and the Pilgrims land at Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1620, with settlers in New England becoming farmers and those in Southern colonies developing a plantation economy. Britain defeated France in the French and Indian War between 1754-1763, gaining dominance over North America and taking control of French territories east of the Mississippi River according to the Peace Treaty of Paris, while Native Americans were weakened by disease and their trails were used by settlers moving west.British North America 1763-1787

After Britain defeated France in the Seven Years' War, the Treaty of Paris in 1763 transferred control of New France to Britain. This led to tensions between the British, French Canadians, Native Americans, and the 13 American colonies. Pontiac's Rebellion and the Proclamation of 1763 drew a boundary line between Native and colonial lands, further straining relations. These tensions contributed to the American Revolution, during which Britain attempted to keep Quebec loyal through the Quebec Act of 1774. The war resulted in American independence but also established British North America as a separate entity, with many Loyalists migrating there after the war.Summer school history - american history

Between 1607 and 1763, European powers established colonies in North America through exploration and settlement. Spain claimed territory from Florida to California, establishing colonies focused on gold and silver mining and enforcing Catholicism. France claimed the Mississippi Valley and eastern Canada, focusing on fur trading and coexisting with Native Americans. The Dutch established New Netherland colony in New York from 1624-1664. England's colonies grew through religious dissenters and opportunities for economic and religious freedom. Colonies developed representative governments and economic independence from Britain, laying the foundations for American self-government and identity.New France

Jacques Cartier, recognized as the discoverer of Canada, attempted to establish a French colony in the St. Lawrence region, but failed due to poor relations with the Iroquois and false hopes of finding gold. Samuel de Champlain later founded Quebec City in 1608, which became the center of New France, yet the colony struggled with population growth due to reluctance from France to encourage settlement. Ultimately, after several conflicts with the British, New France fell under British control following the Seven Years' War, leading to its official incorporation into British territories.New France

France first attempted to establish colonies in North America in 1523 when explorers discovered New York Bay and claimed the land for France, naming it Nouvelle-Angouleme. France's first permanent settlement in 1534 in Gaspe Peninsula, Quebec failed soon after due to problems. France found more success by establishing trade with Native Americans and peaceful relations, especially the fur trade which was valuable in Europe. France's colonization differed from Spain and England by not sending military forces but instead relying on trade alliances which helped spread French influence over a vast region with little conflict. New France lasted from 1534 to 1763 and at its peak encompassed territory from Newfoundland to the Rocky Mountains.French and indian war

Laissez-faire economics advocated for minimal government intervention in the economy based on the ideas of Adam Smith. Thomas Malthus believed population growth would outpace food supply, while David Ricardo wrote about an "Iron Law of Wages." Utilitarianism held that laws should maximize happiness for the greatest number. Socialists believed the means of production should be owned collectively rather than privately. Karl Marx viewed socialism as inevitable and realistic in contrast to utopian socialists, laying out his theories in The Communist Manifesto. Marxism later inspired revolutions around the world before declining as people felt stronger national ties than ideological ties to communism.Social impact of the industrial revolution

The Industrial Revolution led to overcrowded and unsanitary conditions in urban areas as people migrated to cities to work in factories and mines. New social classes emerged, including industrial workers who faced long hours, dangerous machinery, pollution, and poor living conditions in overcrowded tenements. While unions were initially banned, worker protests grew, including the Luddites who destroyed machinery. Child labor was also common, with many starting work as young as age 5 to support their families. Some reforms followed, but conditions remained difficult for industrial workers.Frechrevevents

The National Assembly formed as the Third Estate broke away from the Estates General, and took the Tennis Court Oath to create a constitution. The storming of the Bastille sparked revolts across France. The National Assembly abolished feudalism and adopted the Declaration of Rights of Man, though it ignored calls to include women's rights. Food shortages led to the March on Versailles and the royal family's move to Paris.Frenchrevolutionpics

Taxes had risen sharply but were largely paid only by peasants while the nobility and clergy were exempt. King Louis XVI called the Estates General to address the crisis. The Estates General divided France into three groups: the clergy, nobility, and commoners. Tensions were rising between the privileged first two estates and the burdened third estate of commoners.Ch18sec2
