How did the impact of the french differ from that of the spanish in the new world

The Spanish expanded across Central America and North America. In their conquest of the New World, the Spanish subdued and defeated the Inca civilization of Peru, the Aztecs of Central America, and the Maya civilization of the Yucatan. So by this you can see that they took over some of the New Worlds area and populated it.

France founded colonies in much of eastern North America, on a number of Caribbean islands, and in South America. Most colonies were developed to export products such as fish, rice, sugar, and furs.So by this you can see that French impacted us by finding new land and exported goods too us so we can survive.

the name of the theory is landmass theory.
