Why did the French establish settlements along the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence?

History

zloy xaker [14]3 years ago

The French settled along the St. Lawrence River and the Great Lakes for a few reasons.

France arrived late to the New World after Spain, therefore Samuel de Champlain moved north and up the St. Lawrence River. Trying to find the Northwest Passage to Asia, Champlain moved west around the Great Lakes.

France sent few settlers to the Americas. Only male missionaries and fur traders stayed in the new land. Therefore, not many sustainable settlements were needed. Fur traders trapped where they needed to. Missionaries interacted and traded with the Native Americans such as the Huron.

Why did John C. Frémont initially settle in the Salinas Valley before marching north, only to march south to San Francisco?
Nimfa-mama [501]

John C. Frémont settled in Salinas to accompany the annexation of California and then went south to support John D. Sloat.

John Charles Frémont (1813 - 1890) was an American military man who stood out for participating in the annexation of California to the United States and for being the first candidate for the presidency of the United States presented by the Republican Party in its history.

The process for the annexation of California to the United States began in December 1845 when John Frémont entered the Mexican province of Alta California (State of California) accompanied by 60 men under his command.

This incursion had the endorsement of the Mexican authorities because the Americans had argued that they were going with the intention of making a scientific and topographical expedition.

However, Frémont was in charge of encouraging and advising American citizens living in that territory to separate from Mexico to become part of the United States.

This incursion caused the crisis in this region to begin in 1846 because the citizens of this region wanted to become independent from Mexico. Subsequently, on June 14, 1846, the Republic of California was declared, and 25 days later they were annexed to the United States Government.

At that time Fremont was established in the Salinas Valley. Once he learned that he had support in the city of Monterrey (further south of Valle de Salinas) he went there and put himself at the disposal of John D. Sloat but he rejected it.

In Ancient Near East what was the concept of the city-State an important innovation and development of Art?
sergij07 [2.7K]

The concept of the city-state was an important innovation and development  (and invention) of Art because these cities, such as Uruk or Lagash, are some of the earliest known complex urban centers, and the settlement of people in them made necessary the construction of walls, temples, and burial sites that today are recognized as archeological vestiges of exceptional significance.

Furthermore, since the people that had settled in them had at their disposal food resources and an administrative class that took care of their needs and secured their welfare, artistic and craft production flourished in them.
