I'll tell you that It's not A for sure. 

What do you think? Which one do you think it is? B, C, or D?

Oh gosh, I'm sorry, I meant It's not C! Ugh lol.

I believe it is A. 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, sugar, and furs.
