Answer:

France established its first colony in the territory of Louisiana

Step-by-step explanation:

The option C is correct because, Pierre Le Moyne d'Iberville was a French voyager who in his last expedition to Louisiana in December of 1701, and, as a colonial administrator and knight of the order of St. Louis, authorized the construction of Fort Louis in Mobile in that same year. The purpose is to strengthen Mobile Bay and pave the way for French settlement permanently.
