Samuel de Champlain was a pivotal figure in early North American exploration, known as the "Father of New France." He founded Quebec City in 1608, establishing a permanent French settlement that became a center for fur trade and French colonial expansion. Champlain was also instrumental in mapping the Great Lakes and promoting alliances with Indigenous peoples, which facilitated French exploration and trade in the region. His detailed accounts of the New World contributed significantly to European knowledge of North America.
