    333. Regiment Carignan-Salières

    333. Regiment Carignan-Salières

    King Louis the 14th of France, already dreamed of creating a great empire, and he did not want to inaugurate his reign by losing his colony in the new world. He realized that New France would never prosper as long as it was treated as a purely commercial operation. Changes were made and the Regiment Carignan-Salières were deployed to combat the Iroquois threat. The colony would now report directly to him and the royal administration through a governor and an intendant. Things would finally improve and change in New France under the energetic reign of the monarch that helped usher in the Golden Age of New France.

Joseph Pascone ,

Great content!

Mark Vinet explores the history of North America through a unique lens; he has created an interesting and thoughtful show, which my partner and I both enjoy listening to. Great work!

Arsayu ,

It could be good but…

To much ads. 2min of real content all other are ads and repetitive announcements.
Also, too many content from others and some uninteresting stories.

RichAtThisAmericanPresident ,

Not afraid to take on the taboo topics

Mark Vinet’s podcast gives you an unvarnished look at the History of North America. He isn’t afraid to delve into the difficult topics, like slavery, but in an even-handed way.
