The area was first explored in the early 1600s by French explorer Étienne Brûlé, but wasn’t permanently settled until the establishment of the French trading post Fort Rouillé in 1750. However, this settlement was short lived, and abandoned nine years later.
It wasn’t until after the American Revolution and the subsequent Toronto Purchase of 1787 from the local natives that European settlement of the area began in earnest. Fort York was established a few years later, and in 1793 the area was chosen as the new capital of Upper Canada. This new settlement was known as York until it was renamed as Toronto, when the town was incorporated in 1834.
