Nova Scotia, Prince Edward
Island, & New Brunswick
Over the course of millions of years, the drifting of the continents and the gentle yet persistent movements of the Atlantic Ocean created the historic region encompassing the easternmost part of Canada.
Nova Scotia was a initially settled by the French who were subsequently driven out by the British. Resident Native Americans resisted British influence and the area received migrations of exiled Americans that remained loyal to the British crown. Throughout this period prior to Confederation, Nova Scotia encompassed New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Cape Breton Island, and Northern Maine.
