Why efforts to expand New France's territory before 1663 were so weak?

Efforts to expand New France's territory before 1663 were weak primarily due to limited resources and manpower, as the French government focused more on establishing trade networks than on territorial expansion. Additionally, the challenges posed by Indigenous resistance and competition with other European powers, particularly the British and the Dutch, hindered aggressive expansion. The lack of a strong administrative framework and the prioritization of economic interests over settlement also contributed to the stagnation in territorial growth during this period.


What are some good and bad things about Zachary Taylor?

Zachary Taylor, the 12th President of the United States, is often remembered for his military leadership in the Mexican-American War, which bolstered his popularity and helped him win the presidency. On the downside, his presidency was brief, lasting only 16 months before his death, and he struggled with the contentious issues of slavery and territorial expansion, which ultimately contributed to tensions leading to the Civil War. Additionally, his lack of political experience and reluctance to engage deeply in the political landscape limited his effectiveness as a leader.
