The name “Canada” likely comes from the Huron-Iroquois word “kanata,” meaning “village” or “settlement.” In 1535, two Aboriginal youths told French explorer Jacques Cartier about the route to kanata; they were actually referring to the village of Stadacona, the site of the present-day City of Québec. For lack of another name, Cartier used the word “Canada” to describe not only the village, but the entire area controlled by its chief, Donnacona.
The name was soon applied to a much larger area; maps in 1547 designated everything north of the St. Lawrence River as Canada. Cartier also called the St. Lawrence River the “rivière du Canada,” a name used until the early 1600s. By 1616, although the entire region was known as New France, the area along the great river of Canada and the Gulf of St. Lawrence was still called Canada.
Soon explorers and fur traders opened up territory to the west and to the south, and the area known as Canada grew. In the early 1700s, the name referred to all French lands in what is now the American Midwest and as far south as present-day Louisiana.
The first use of Canada as an official name came in 1791, when the Province of Quebec was divided into the colonies of Upper Canada and Lower Canada. In 1841, the two colonies were united under one name, the Province of Canada.
This is a really interesting question and I would love to answer it but especially in society today just think super hard at what you perceive as masculine. To me (you can use this) I picture masculinity as strong and fierce mostly because that's just how I grew up and masculine means muscular and strong. Present-day definition wise of the word, I have no idea tbh. I guess it has though because mostly everything says masculinity is strong while feminent traits are normally shown as weak in media. For the last question, I would just answer it the best you can because the last one is really up to you.
The dogs during the pre 1800’s were not mainly seen as a
companion or a friend in which the society today claims. During this period,
the dogs are mostly seen as an animal who serves as hunting, herding and
protection to people.

Answer:
The Greeks sank about 300 Persian vessels while losing only about 40 of their own. The rest of the Persian fleet was scattered, and as a result Xerxes had to postpone his planned land offensives for a year, a delay that gave the Greek city-states time to unite against him. The Battle of Salamis was the first great naval battle recorded in history.
