The Deportation of the Acadians

Role Play: The Deportation of the Acadians

During this adventure, you will be transported to 18th century Acadie, at the time of the Grand Dérangement. While following in the footsteps of two young Acadians who face anxiety and hardship during the Deportation, you will need to act and make thoughtful decisions that will influence your future. Real archival documents and studies on the Grand Dérangement have been used to create the scenarios that you will be faced with. They are all plausible, even though they are not all historical. You will therefore experience situations that took place or that might have taken place during the Deportation. This adventure is divided into scenes. At the end of each one, you will be faced with a decision. Once you have established your plan of action, click on your selection and see the consequences, some unfortunate and others less so.
