About the fact that it has been fifty years since that bright autumn day in Dallas, many Americans continue to lament and be fascinated by the youngest man ever elected president. Neither Garfield nor McKinley could claim to have had such an indelible impact on the American psyche. JFK remains a vivid figure half a century after his death for a number of reasons. The then-nascent news medium of television was perhaps the most significant contributor to his "afterlife" in American culture. Kennedy was the first president to hold live broadcast news conferences, and many Americans had a closer bond to the man in the White House as a result of those events. Television was there when he died, in a manner that no other news source could match.
The country that joined the French at that time was Spain, who controlled the area of what is now Florida. The Iroquois were on the French side but were allies the entire war and not a "European country".
the island is surrounded by a big body of water ( great lake ) and is very ancient meaning you'd see the arrival of the spanish and would witness things that weren't so looked down upon in today's society :)
