King Louis the 14th of France, already dreamed of creating a great empire, and he did not want to inaugurate his reign by losing his colony in the new world. He realized that New France would never prosper as long as it was treated as a purely commercial operation. Changes were made and the Regiment Carignan-Salières were deployed to combat the Iroquois threat. The colony would now report directly to him and the royal administration through a governor and an intendant. Things would finally improve and change in New France under the energetic reign of the monarch that helped usher in the Golden Age of New France.
