district of maine meaning in French

district du maine

Before then, it was the District of Maine, part of the state of Massachusetts.
Avant cette date, le district du Maine faisait partie de l'État du Massachusetts.
Secretary of State for the Colonies Lord George Germain, the 1st Viscount Sackville, and his Under-Secretary, William Knox, who were responsible for the war effort wanted to establish a base on the coast of the District of Maine (which until achieving statehood in 1820 was a part of Massachusetts) that could be used to protect Nova Scotia's shipping and communities from American privateers and raiders.
Le secrétaire d'État aux colonies lord George Germain, et son sous-secrétaire, William Knox, décident donc l'établissement d'une base sur la côte du Maine (qui, jusqu'en 1820, comprend aussi une partie du Massachusetts actuel) afin de protéger la Nouvelle-Écosse contre les raids Américains et les corsaires,.
