O knihe
In North America, Seven Years' War officially ended with
the signing of the Treaty of Paris on February 10,
1763. As
part of the treaty, France ceded all North American
land to
Britain, except Louisiana and two islands off the
shores of
Newfoundland, Saint-Pierre and Miquelon. Specifically,
Britain gained control of a strip of territory along the
St. Lawrence River with a population of approximately
54,000 French-speaking, Roman Catholics. Near the
beginning
of the war, in 1755, the British had expelled French-
speaking populations in Acadia to Louisiana, creating
the
Cajun population, but this would not be repeated in
1763.
Many British people (including the American colonies
to the
south) hoped the French Canadians would be
assimilated, but
distinct rules of governance for Quebec were set out
in the
Quebec Act of 1774.
