What empire extended from Hudson Bay to the Gulf of Mexico under notable leaders such as Jean Talon and Count Frontenac?

  1. The British Empire

  2. The Spanish Empire

  3. The French Empire

  4. The Dutch Empire

The correct answer is: The French Empire

The French Empire, also known as the French colonial empire, extended from Hudson Bay to the Gulf of Mexico under notable leaders such as Jean Talon and Count Frontenac. This empire was formed through a series of colonial ventures, trades, and alliances with indigenous peoples, beginning in the 16th century. The British and Dutch Empires did have colonial holdings in North America, but they did not extend as far as Hudson Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. The Spanish Empire, while it did have colonies in present-day Mexico and Florida, did not have a significant presence in the Hudson Bay region. Therefore, the correct answer is C, the French Empire.
