Explore the profound history of Acadian Deportation, a pivotal saga stretching from 1755 to the dawn of the 19th century. This monumental journey is broken down into four significant stages - embarkation from Acadia, disembarkation in the US and Europe, the transit and migrations across Acadia, Europe, the US, and the West Indies, culminating in the recolonization of Acadia within Atlantic Canada, Louisiana, Quebec, and France.
