This is a bit anachronistic, since Canada in 1752 was still part of France, depending on how you see it (Acadia had been in British hands since 1710). I also wonder what political entities are counted for Germany.

For Germany it's the year the Protestant states of the Holy Roman Empire adopted it. The Catholic part had adopted it ~120 years before.

New France, technically, which at the time was a region spanning from Cape Breton through to New Orleans.
