Well, in Acadia between 1755 and 1763, there were a lot of changes happening. People had to adapt to new rules and ways of life, which could be challenging. But just like painting a beautiful landscape, the people of Acadia showed resilience and strength during this time of change. They found ways to create beauty and hope in the midst of uncertainty.
The Great Deportation, also known as the Acadian Expulsion, took place between 1755 and 1763 in Acadia, which is present-day Nova Scotia, Canada. British authorities forcibly removed around 10,000 Acadians from their homeland as reprisal for their refusal to pledge allegiance to the British crown.

The Cajuns were forced out of Acadia due to the British conquest of the region during the French and Indian War (1754-1763). In 1755, the British government ordered the expulsion of the Acadian population, fearing they would side with the French. This mass deportation, known as the Great Upheaval, resulted in thousands of Acadians being forcibly removed from their homes, leading many to seek refuge in Louisiana, where they eventually became known as Cajuns. The expulsion was driven by a combination of military strategy and colonial policy.
