The French conquered England in 1066 and until the end of the 19th century French was a very important language for those living in English speaking countries.
The construction of the Fortress of Louisbourg in Nova Scotia, which began in 1720 and was completed in the mid-1740s, cost approximately £1.5 million, a significant sum at the time. This expense was largely funded by the French government as part of their efforts to establish a strong presence in North America. The fortress was designed to be a strategic military stronghold and an important center for trade, reflecting the economic priorities of the French colonial empire.
At the time William the Conqueror and his Normans invaded and conquered England, the Normans spoke a version of French called Norman French. This was French with vocabulary added by Norsemen who had conquered the region now called Normandy several generations earlier.
