During the summer of 1609, Samuel de Champlain attempted to form better relations with the local native tribes. He made alliances with the Wendat (called Huron by the French) and with the Algonquin, the Montagnais, and the Etchemin, who lived in the area of the St. Lawrence River. These tribes demanded that Champlain help them in their war against the Iroquois, who lived further south. Champlain set off with 9 French soldiers and 300 natives to explore the Rivière des Iroquois (now known as the Richelieu River), and became the first European to map Lake Champlain. Having had no encounters with the Iroquois at this point many of the men headed back because of the danger of traveling in the country of their enemies, leaving Champlain with only 2 Frenchmen and 60 natives.

  • La bataille du lac Champlain oppose la tribu iroquoise des Agniers à une coalition de tribus autochtones, composée d'Algonquins, de Hurons et de Montagnais, soutenue par leurs alliés français, menés par Samuel de Champlain. Cette bataille est probablement la première où des Européens prennent part dans un conflit entre les autochtones américains. (fr)
