The People

The Cree

The Cree are the largest group of natives living in northern Canada. They still follow the ways of their ancestors, like living in nomadic groups. The mountainous regions that they call home are among the coldest in the country. They travel in large family groups. They are ruled by a Council of Chiefs. They recognize Paul Artorion as the King of the Cree through the bloodline of his great-great grandmother. He can trace his lineage back to an ancient line of Cree kings. This gives the Cree great pride and honor and why the Emperor is guarded by Cree. The Cree have domisticated the caribou, a relative of the deer. They use it to carry materials, give food, fur and milk. The Cree have also done somthing unique with the caribou. They have learned to ride the animals. So when the Empire calls, the Cree men ride to the Emperor's side mounted on caribou and in times of peace, when there is a lack of materials for sleds, they will ride caribou. They can even been seen in northern Canadian cities as far south as Prince George with their caribou cavalry and caribou-pulled sleds. History was made when Empress Alia gave her Cree crown over to her cousin, Irene Alquonquion who was the Regent. So now Queen Irene is currently trying to unite the Cree tribes back into a Confederated Tribes of the Cree and hopefully allow their entry into the Canadian Federation as a member-nation.

History

First Colonists

The first colonists of Canada was Inglish settlers in 1634. The Inglish were the first of the wave that would soon populate all of Northern and Eastern America. The settlers were led by a man named James Vancouver. He set up the colony's first town called New Beaconsfield (later would be called Vancouver). The Inglish soon headed north by canoe. The Fraser River was the main source of food and transportation. The lumber of Inglish Columbia was sent down the river to mills in New Beaconsfield who then shipped them south to Inglo-Scotia. The beginnings of the colony was always skeptical because the winters were the worst in all of America. But soon the colonists made  an alliance with the Cree Empire.

The Cree Empire was a loose confederacy of various tribes that streached from the eastern border of Inglish Columbia all the way east across the Great Plains to the Great Lake. They were ruled by Kings and Queens who were picked from among them. A true dynastic rule didn't appear until 1845. The Cree were kind to the new arrivals. They traded valuable fur for guns, iron, blankets and other goods. But soon the Cree Empire was starting to fail as they soon realized that the Inglish colonists had brought diease with them. Less then a third of the Cree died from smallpox. The Cree Empire refused to aid the Inglish and soon attacked the colonists. From 1756 to 1762, a Seven Years War was fought between the Inglish Empire and the Cree Empire. The Inglish won because of their use of cannons and diease. The natives didn't have many cannons and the ones the Cree did have were stolen from previous battles. They were soon pushed away from the border of Inglish Columbia. The colonists wouldn't have to face the Cree Empire until 1823.

The American Revolution

The Thirteen Colonies in the south of Canada were being harshly taxed because the money that the Empire lost from the war with the Cree. Soon the Americans in the colonies rose up in revolt. The American Revolution began. The opening of the war was when a man named General Benedict Arnold led an army north. The Americans believed that the Canadians would rise up and fight the Inglish. But they thought wrong. Washington was forced to lay siege to Quebec City. The largest battle in the Canadian Theater of the American Revolution was among the most costly for the rebels. After a few months of laying siege to the city, Arnold was forced to begin yo pull back into America because of the winter. The Americans and the Canadians continued to fight on in Canada, but the courage of the Canadian militia would force them to finally retreat. Later the Democratic States of America would gain their independence and Canada would always fear an American invasion.

Move West

The Canadian settlers began to overpopulate the coastal provinces, but there was a single obstacle, the Rocky Mountains. The second largest mountain range in the world and it was the only thing stopping the Canadian settlers from moving west. But a brave man named Alexander Mackinzie lead over two hundred people through a northern pass now called the Alexander Pass. The settlers came across the Great Plains that streched from the mountains to the forests of Ontario. The Governor's Council that led the Province of Canada began to allow settlers to go west and settle. Most used the northern Alexander Pass, but they needed a safer, warmer southern route. Another man searching for adventure called Simon Fraser Jr. found the Fraser Pass. His father, Simon Fraser Sr. sailed up and down the river that now bears his name. With the Alexander and Fraser Passes, the Canadians soon spread deep into the west, which brought them back into conflict with the Cree Empire.

The Plains War

The Beginnings of Rebellion

The years between 1860 and 1862 were years of turmoil for the Province of Canada. Three rebellions broke out, two with the goal of expelling the Inglish from the continent for good. The other was a Cree rebellion, that wanted more rights to the natives as well as respect of the government towards the remainders of their land. The first two rebellions, the Republican Rebellion of Toronto and the Rocky Mountain Sons launched attacks on Inglish outposts and tried to win over the population into joining them in their rebellion. Bt the rebellion lasted only a few months. The Rocky Mountain Sons were routed at the Battle of Prince George and were forced to surrender. The leaders of the rebellion were hanged. The Republican Rebellion was more successful, but ultimatly failed. Between 1860 and 1861, the Provisional Government of the Republic of Canada occupied Toronto and other parts of southern Ontario. This rebellion had the silent and quiet support of the Democratic States of America. The Inglish gathered an army of 10,000 Inglish and Quebecois soldiers and sent them to Toronto. The smaller rebel army fought at the Inglish/Quebecois army at Kingston. But they were also routed and defeated. The President of the Provisional Government and the Provisional Senate were all hanged in Toronto. Lastly, the Red River Rebellion needed to be put down. The Red River was one of the varioius bastions of Cree indiviuality. The Cree wanted the government to respect their lands, but the Canadian settlers were still taking their land. So a militaristic confederation of tribes in the Red River Region launched an attack on Fort Tobis. They killed the fifty soldiers garrsioned there. The Canadian colonial government declared war and launched the first ever Imperial Canadian Mounted Police regiment. The ICMP were created by the Governor-General William Crofts, the ancestor of the current Inglish Prime Minister, to enforce the law in the West. Three battles were fought between the ICMP and the Cree Confederates. The Cree won the first battle, the Battle of the Fords. The next two battles, the Battle of Regina and the Battle of the Red River were won by the ICMP. After the victory, the Cree Confederate leaders were tried by a court of peers and Canadian leaders. The court found the leaders guilty of murder, but they didn't try them for treason. They realized that the Cree just wanted their lands to be respected. So the government granted the Cree grants to their lands, and ordered that no settlers will live in Cree lands.

The Durham Conference

After the Rebellions, an Inglish diplomat named Lord Durham went before Governor-General Crofts and his Governor's Council and tried to come to a compromise about the rebellious Canadians. A poll that Durham had orcahstrated showed that the Canadians wanted more independence of their own, and they wanted to be ruled by their own. So the Governor-General and Durham had a conference with the five Canadian Premiers, the Governor of Northwest Trading Company, and the Governor of the Colony of Inglish Columbia to discuss their road to independence. The Governor-General of the Dominion of Labrador didn't wish to go to the conference. The five Premiers demanded independence as well as the Governor of the Northwest Trading Company. He showed a map of four possible territories that will become part of the new nation. Lord Durham agreed and began to help forify the beginnings fo the new country. The Inglish Columbian Governor was scepitcal about the concept of independence, but after the Rocky Mountain Boys Rebellion, he agreed. The problem was the creation of a new capital. The Quebecois Premier wanted Quebec City to be the capital, while the Ontarian Premier wanted Toronto. The inlgish Columbian Premier thought of having New Beaconsfield as the capital, but the idea came from the Northwest Company Governor brought up the idea of using WInnipeg as the capital becaue of its location in the center of the country. The others agreed. But the question was what form of government. The idea of a republic or a monarchy was brought up. But everyone feared that as a republic, they would later join the DSA, so monarchy was the only reasonable solution. Possible candidates were brought up. But only one person stuck out. The Inglish Emperor's brother, Prince George. He was brought over from Ingland and was hailed as the Emperor of Canada. He was crowned Emperor in Winnipeg's Governor's Palace. The Canadian Empire was created.
