French and Indian war
The document summarizes the events leading up to the American Revolution, including tensions over land in the Ohio River Valley which led to the French and Indian War. As a result of this war and the 1763 Treaty of Paris, Britain gained control of land formerly held by France but issued the Proclamation of 1763 banning colonist settlement west of the Appalachians, angering the colonists. Subsequent taxes by Britain like the Sugar Act and Stamp Act further increased tensions, as did other acts like the Quartering Act and Intolerable Acts, leading the colonies to unite and hold the First Continental Congress.
French Indian War
The document provides background information on the French and Indian War (1754-1763), which was a colonial conflict between France and Britain in North America that was part of a larger imperial war between the two powers called the Seven Years' War. It discusses key events that led to the start of the war such as territorial disputes in the Ohio River Valley and George Washington's involvement at Fort Necessity. It also summarizes several major battles during the war including General Braddock's defeat at Fort Duquesne and the massacre of British soldiers at Fort William Henry.
The Seven Years War
The Seven Years War was a global conflict between 1756 and 1763 that involved most of the great powers of the time. It began with a struggle between Prussia and Austria over the province of Silesia, leading to a diplomatic revolution where old alliances broke down and new ones formed. Britain and Prussia allied against France, Austria, Russia, and Sweden. Though Frederick the Great of Prussia initially achieved success on the continent, the tide turned against Prussia and Britain's victories in North America and India helped secure an eventual peace favorable to their interests with territorial gains.
French and Indian War
The document summarizes key events of the French and Indian War in North America between 1754 and 1763. It discusses how the Ohio River Valley was desirable for settlement due to its fertile land and location at the confluence of the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio Rivers. The French responded to British settlements in the Ohio River Valley by attacking a militia led by George Washington in 1754, starting the French and Indian War. Ultimately, the British were able to defeat the French through better preparation of troops under William Pitt and capturing the French capital of Quebec City in 1759 after a three month siege. The war ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763, giving much of New France to the British.

Chp 4 French and indian war
The French and Indian War marked a turning point in American relations with Britain. While it initially united the colonies against a common enemy, it also created tensions that would intensify. The war burdened Britain with debt and led them to attempt to tighten control over the colonies through new taxes and laws. This strained colonial loyalty to the crown and sowed the seeds of revolution, as the colonies began to resent British rule rather than see themselves as British subjects. Though political control was asserted, cultural differences and economic burdens on both sides ensured the relationship would continue to deteriorate.

The Boston Tea Party was a symbolic protest by the Sons of Liberty in 1773 against the British Tea Act. Colonists boarded three ships in Boston Harbor at night and dumped all 342 chests of taxed tea from the British East India Company into the harbor over a period of three hours. This large act of destruction of private property in response to "taxation without representation" increased tensions between the colonies and Britain and was an important event leading toward the American Revolution.

8.1 Fighting for Control
The French and Indian War began in 1754 due to conflicting territorial claims between France, England, and Spain in North America. France wanted control of the Mississippi River and sent troops to push out the British from the Ohio River Valley, which England viewed as an act of war.

History american revolution-less video
The American Revolution began with the French and Indian War from 1752-1763, where the British and colonists fought against the French and Native Americans. After winning, Britain issued laws like the Proclamation of 1763 and Stamp Act in the 1760s to raise money from the colonies to pay war debts. This caused growing tensions as the colonists objected to "taxation without representation" in Britain's parliament. Notable figures like Patrick Henry argued the king had no right to override colonial laws. Resentment towards British control and unfair economic policies led the colonies to start protesting British taxation and authority over the colonies.
