What was the Great Upheaval?

  1. The industrial revolution in Britain

  2. Between 1755-1763, the deportation of the Acadians

  3. The rise of the Ottoman Empire

  4. The French Revolution

The correct answer is: Between 1755-1763, the deportation of the Acadians

The Great Upheaval refers to a significant event in history where thousands of Acadians, French-speaking inhabitants of Acadia (present-day Maritime provinces in Canada), were forcefully deported from their homes by the British between 1755-1763. This event had a lasting impact on the Acadian culture and heritage, and it is considered a tragedy by many historians. Options A, C, and D may all be significant events in history, but they are not the same as the Great Upheaval, which specifically refers to the deportation of Acadians.
