Protestants in France were not allowed to hold positions under the Crown or teach at

universities. They could not go to any French colonies. (From 1598 to 1655, some of these

restrictions were suspended.) The French only took the Roman Catholic religion to New

France because it was the only one tolerated in France.

Protestants in France faced various restrictions, including not being able to openly practice their faith, holding certain public offices, or attending university. France only promoted Roman Catholicism in New France because it was the official religion of the French monarchy at the time, and they aimed to maintain control and unity by imposing their religion on the settlers and indigenous populations.
