Abstract
Abstract The French colonial presence in North America spanned intermittently from 1541 to 1803. At its territorial height before the Treaty of Utrecht (1713), French hegemony extended from Newfoundland to the Rockies and from Hudson Bay to the Gulf of Mexico. In all, France claimed over half the continent, including over 20 current US states. This vast domain had four areas: Acadia, Canada, the Upper Country, and Louisiana. The French called their North American holdings New France, an expression that betrayed their aspirations. The architects of French colonial expansion intended to create an improved society to serve the mother country. Contrary to expectations, French colonists adapted culturally and implemented policies dictated by local demands. The Seven Years War abruptly ended French claims in North America. By the Treaty of Paris in 1763, France kept only two tiny islands south of Newfoundland. In 1800, the French momentarily regained a foothold in North America, finally forfeiting their rights through the Louisiana Purchase.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
