The history of Quebec dates as far back as the discovery of Canada itself. It was indeed on her soil that Jacques Cartier, the envoy of the king of France , landed for the first time in 1534. She did not, however, really begin to exist until 1608, when Samuel de Champlain, who had already established a first settlement in Acadia, planted the fleur-de-lis on the rock of Stadacona, and definitely chose Quebec as the seat of what was to be New France for more than a century and a half.
New France ceased to exist as such, under the terms of the the Treaty of Paris in 1763, and was officially transferred, under the name of Canada, from the French to the British crown.
