September 1610 CE

The rule of France has fallen to Marie de' Medici, as regent for the nine-year-old Louis XIII, upon the assassination in May of her husband.

Marie is a staunch Catholic with little interest in New France, and many of Champlain's Protestant financial supporters, including Pierre Dugua, are denied access to court.

Champlain, on hearing the news, returns to France in September 1610 to establish new political connections in support of efforts at colonization.
