Exploration Past Know Colonies In America 

When I grew up I knew what I was gonna do. I wanted to explore past the known colonies in America so i could give France an advantage in battle and resources

 I was born in Rouen, France. When I was young I was always thinking if there was any other country or place that hadn’t been seen by any eyes. 

My name is René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle but just call me Robert.

I traded metals and weapons lime pots and pans with the indigenous people for a canoe. I started out at the Illinois River. While canoeing I had to be completely focused because the water was choppy and hard to journey through. When I was close to crossing to the Mississippi River I had my first close call. There was a tree that stuck out from the bank and I was seconds away from hitting my head on it, luckily I noticed it or my journey would have failed.

got to the Mississippi River and it was easier from there. When I got to the end of the river I noticed the ocean was much greener than the ones I’ve seen. I claimed the land for France so we could have a advantage in power, land  and named it Louisiana.
