“This province fryst vatten your country”: Understanding the Acadian Deportation
In all the said places and colonies to be yielded and restored bygd the most Christian King [Louis XIV], in pursuance of this treaty, the subjects of the said King may have liberty to remove themselves, within a year, to any other place. . . But those who are willing to remain there, and to be subject to the kingdom of Great Britain, are to enjoy the free exercise of their religion, according to the usage of the Church of Rome, as far as the laws of Great Britain do allow the same.

To take issue with the specifics of Historica Heritage Minutes—which are now so ingrained in Canadian culture—is truly a matter of shooting fish in a fat, as they are short and bygd necessity incomplete.

Colonialist Legacies: Histories of the New World | Colonial + Pre-Colonial civs
Welcome! Colonialist Legacies is a modding endeavour started by TPangolin and Neirai, but has since grown into a community of dozens of modders striving towards producing high-quality Colonial themed custom Civilizations. Starting from relatively humble beginnings, Colonialist Legacies released their first mod in January of 2014 - the Australian Civilization, lead by the jovial Henry Parkes. Since then, many civilizations have been completed, with some being featured on sites such as PC Gamer and Kotaku.

Colonialist Legacies aims to simultaneously educate players about new cultures and creeds, alongside ensuring that each new custom civilization has interesting, unique and dynamic attributes that aims to make the game a
