A British officer reads the Expulsion Order to the Acadians in 1755 while a priest comforts his distraught parishioners.

Acadia (French: Acadie) was a large part of New France in North America, including parts of eastern Quebec, the Maritime provinces, and modern-day Maine to the Kennebec River. The Expulsion – le Grand Derangement – was the forced removal by the British of the Acadian people from present day Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island.
