• Michigania was actually first the proposed name for a territory in present day northern Wisconsin and the southwest Upper Peninsula.

![Page 14: Michigan early history](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062614/546659c0af79594a1f8b5900/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

European to make contact with Anishnabeg (Ojibway) in present day Sault St. Marie.– Sent by Samuel De Champlain (Governor of

The French: Furs and Fortune
• Why did they come?–Riches, unsaved souls, imperial control,
geographical knowledge and adventure.• What did they do when they got here?–Traded manufactured goods for furs, often at
a 600-700% profit margin.– Settled in Detroit, St. Joseph,
Michilimackinac, and Sault St. Marie.– In 1750, only 500 Frenchmen lived in Detroit,
they’re largest settlement

The French and the Indians• Manufactured goods (guns, knives, kettles, and
clothes) from the French initially raised their standard of living.
• Indians began trapping for fur rather than food.• Alcohol is introduced to Indians.– Made drunken Indians easier to exploit, and was
rapidly consumed, leaving a continual demand.• European diseases decimate many Indian
populations.
