Answer:

France demanded property named Acadia but it was nowhere close as big as the British empire though still a notable piece of property.

Step-by-step explanation:

France traveled down the Mississippi, demanding property on both sides of the river, and established the city of New Orleans. France then entered the Rocky Mountains and declared the whole center of North America. They developed a series of forts that ran from Quebec to Detroit and down to New Orleans.
