| |
| The French-Indian War started in ''1754'' and ended in ''1763''.<br>The British wanted to expand their territory to the ''west'' but at the same time the French wanted to expand their territory to the ''south''. That created the conflict.<br>The French had a much smaller army so they persuaded the ''Indians''
| |
| to help them. After seven years of war, the ''British'' won and gained a lot of territory whereas the ''French''
| |
| were forced to give up all of their North American territory. <br>As a result, King George III. had to pay a huge amount of ''money''. So he raised ''taxes'' on the American colonies. Of course, they were angry which eventually led to the wish for independence.
