An Alliance with the Huron Empire

1. What is an alliance? What does this word mean?Great traders themselves, the Hurons navigated the rivers of Central Canada and were very prosperous. They would become the leading source of furs for the French.
Alliance means an agreement between countries,political parties,etc.To work together in order to achieve sth that they all want.That's a group of people,polotical parties,etc.

2. Why would Champlain want to form an alliance with the Hurons?

Because all three nations had strategic interests to cooperate with the French. The Hurons, today commonly known as Wyandot, were associated with the French from the start of colonisation. The French, who viewed them as the most advances nation, in terms of trade and technology,chose to associate with them in order to gain better profits from the North American colonies. In turn, the Wyandot saw an opportunity to cooperate with a power that would undermine their most powerful foes -the Iroquois.I think Champlain want to form an alliance with the Hurons because there are must have some advantages that Hurons can help French.Champlain knew the Huron not only had better fur than the Algonkin and Iroquois, but access through trade with other tribesto areas of even higher quality,so if he can have an alliance with them he can get some helps to do many works.
