Dakota Culture and Relationships with the French and Other Tribes In the early 17th century, France had began to develop a strong foothold on territory in North America and present day Canada. This territory, known as New France, was able to expand through a series of French expeditions, and French participation in North American fur trade became a major determining factor of the prosperity of their settlements. One way for the French to take part in this thriving trade business was to provoke the involvement of the natives, such as the Sioux, the Algonquins, the Montagnais, the Huron, the Ottawa, and the Ojibwe. At the time, the Dakota, a subdivision of the Sioux tribe, lived in the northern regions of the Dakotas and near Lake Superior.

I agree with all that you have stated above. I also found that republican agrarianism was Jefferson 's view of a nation of small family farms grouped into rural communities. Jefferson believed that a nation full of farmers, each only dependent on themselves for livelihood, would show the concern for the community good that was essential in a republic. This is exactly how it gave America uniqueness and a new destiny. I also read from the text that expansionism had a few downfalls to it.
