Fur trading

The French settle the Mississippi and Ohio Valleys as well as the northeast part of Canada.

When the French came to create settlements, they brought men willing to work and search for fur as well as missionaries. They had a policy of creating beneficial relationships with Native American tribes. These alliances helped the French to find and trap animals to use for fur. The fur business proved to be profitable for the French and much of their wealth from the colonies came from the fur trade.
