The history of Canada in Many language: Arabic, French, Deutsh, English, Italian ..

The history of Canada covers the period from the arrival of Paleo-Indians thousands of years ago to the present day. Prior to European colonization, the lands encompassing present-day Canada were inhabited for millennia by Aboriginal peoples, with distinct trade networks, spiritual beliefs, and styles of social organization. Some of these civilizations had long faded by the time of the first European arrivals and have been discovered through archaeological investigations.

Starting in the late 15th century, French and British expeditions explored, colonized, and fought over various places within North America in what constitutes present day Canada. The colony of New France was established in 1534 and was ceded to the United Kingdom in 1763 after the French defeat in the Seven Years' War. The now British Province of Quebec was divided into Upper and Lower Canada in 1791 and reunified in 1841. In 1867, the Province of Canada was joined with two other British colonies of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia through Confederation, forming a self-governing entity named Canada. The new dominion expanded by incorporating other parts of British North America, finishing with Newfoundland and Labrador in 1949.

Although responsible government had existed in Canada since 1848, Britain continued to set its foreign and defence policies after the end of the First World War. With the passing of the Statute of Westminster in 1931, Canada became co-equal with the United Kingdom. After the Constitution was repatriated in 1982, the final vestiges of legal dependence on the British parliament were removed. Canada currently consists of ten provinces and three territories and is a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy with Queen Elizabeth II as its head of state.

Over centuries, elements of Aboriginal, French, British and more recent immigrant customs have combined to form a Canadian culture that has also been strongly influenced by its linguistic, geographic and economic neighbour, the United States. Since the conclusion of the Second World War, Canadians have supported multilateralism abroad and socioeconomic development domestically.

Le Canada est une monarchie constitutionnelle d'environ 35 millions d'habitants qui occupe la partie septentrionale du sous-continent nord-américain ; c'est le deuxième plus grand pays du monde en superficie, après la Russie. Habité depuis des millénaires par les Amérindiens (peuples autochtones), le Canada a évolué à partir d'un groupe de colonies européennes en une monarchie officiellement bilingue (anglais et français) et multiculturelle, Les Français, arrivés en 1534, ont commencé à coloniser les rives du St-Laurent en 1603, sur un territoire qu'ils ont nommés le Canada. Les Anglais ont envahi le Canada en 1759 et l'ont renommé Province of Québec. La victoire anglaise fut de courte durée, la défaite des Anglais contre la France et les États-Unis à Yorktown en 1781 fut le début de la monarchie anglaise et du Canada dominé par les Anglais. Depuis 1982, le Canada a une constitution qui a été rejetée par le parlement du Québec, bien que la Province du Québec y soit soumis en vertu des lois constitutionelles régissant le Canada.

يبدأ تاريخ كندا بداية من وصول الهنود القدامى منذ آلاف السنين إلى هناك وحتى وقتنا هذا. فقد سكن كندا مجموعة من سكانها الأصليين الذين نشأت بينهم شبكات تجارية ومعتقدات دينية وتسلسل هرمي اجتماعي. وخاضت بعض هذه الحضارات مواجهات طويلة الأمد عند وصول الأوروبيين الأوائل واكتشافها من خلال

التحقيقات الأثرية. أبرمت وسُنت عديد من المعاهدات والقوانين بين المستوطنين الأوروبيين والسكان الأصليين.

وعلى مدار قرون، اندمجت عادات السكان الأصليين والفرنسيين والبريطانيين إضافة إلى عادات المهاجرين معًا لتصنع الثقافة الكندية. تأثرت الثقافة الكندية شديد التأثر بجارتها اللغوية والجغرافية والاقتصادية، الولايات المتحدة. ومنذ انتهاء الحرب العالمية الثانية، دعم الكنديون تعددية الأطراف في الخارج والتطور الاجتماعي الاقتصادي في الداخل. .
