French Indian war 17 18
The French and Indian War was a conflict between France and Britain in North America from 1754-1763 over control of the Ohio Valley. George Washington was involved early on when he was sent to deliver an ultimatum to the French but was ambushed instead. Later, British forces gained victories starting in 1755, leading to the Treaty of Paris in 1763 where France ceded territorial control in North America to Britain. This expanded British claims but also increased tensions with colonists and Native Americans.
Competition for America- American History
The document discusses the competition between France and Britain for control of the Ohio River Valley in the early 1700s, and the events that led to the French and Indian War. It describes Washington's failed attempt in 1754 to drive out the French, and Benjamin Franklin's Albany Plan to unite the colonies, which was rejected. The British eventually defeated the French in the French and Indian War, gaining control of North America, but went deep into debt, later seeking to tax the colonies to help pay it off.

This led France to go to war with Great Britain in 1793, dividing Americans on whether to support France or remain neutral. Wanting neutrality, President Washington issued a proclamation of neutrality. Meanwhile, the Whiskey Rebellion broke out as farmers protested a new tax on whiskey. Washington led troops to suppress the rebellion, restoring order.

HIS 121 5 Revolutionary America 1763-1783
This document provides an outline summarizing key events and developments during the American Revolutionary period from 1763 to 1783. It discusses the tightening British control over the colonies, the growing tensions between Patriots and Loyalists, the Declaration of Independence in 1776, and the major battles of the Revolutionary War. It also examines the radical implications of the Revolution in establishing republican principles of popular sovereignty, civic virtue, and natural rights over monarchical rule.
French revolution
The French Revolution from 1789 to 1799 saw the absolute monarchy that had ruled France for centuries overthrown. French society underwent major transformations as new ideas from the Enlightenment spread and economic and financial crises increased discontent among commoners who made up the majority of the population. Key events included the meeting of the Estates General, the formation of the National Assembly, the storming of the Bastille prison, and the march on Versailles that helped overthrow the monarchy. The revolution gave rise to radical new policies under the Reign of Terror and the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte, who seized power in a coup.
France 2
France had conflicts with Britain in the mid-18th century that led to the destruction of the first French Empire, including the War of the Austrian Succession and Seven Years War. From the 1770s to 1800s, Britain took control of India and almost all of Canada from France, while France lost Louisiana, the West Indies, and a slave revolt in Haiti led to its independence from France.
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.

2.2 causes of the french revolution
The French Revolution was influenced by Enlightenment thinkers who challenged the divine right of kings. The social structure in France was unequal, with the poor paying most taxes. A growing middle class demanded more political power. France faced an ongoing financial crisis due to massive war debts and excessive spending by Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, whose weak leadership and rumors of corruption further upset the public. Famine and poor harvests exacerbated economic problems and unrest.
Washington's Presidency
George Washington served as the first President of the United States and helped establish the structure and powers of the executive branch. He appointed the first Cabinet, including Alexander Hamilton as Secretary of Treasury and Thomas Jefferson as Secretary of State. Hamilton and Jefferson disagreed over the interpretation of Congressional authority, with Hamilton favoring a loose interpretation allowing more federal power and Jefferson preferring a strict interpretation reserving more powers for states. Washington's presidency established many precedents and saw the emergence of the first political parties in the United States.
Causes French Rev

Revolutionary War 2020.ppt
The American Revolutionary War began as a result of tensions between the American colonies and Britain following the French and Indian War. Britain imposed taxes on the colonies to help pay war debts, angering the colonists who believed in "no taxation without representation." Protests and boycotts of British goods escalated, leading to armed conflict at Lexington and Concord in 1775. The Second Continental Congress formed the Continental Army under George Washington. Although the British captured New York, Washington later won key victories at Trenton and Saratoga. France entered the war as an ally of the newly formed United States after their declaration of independence in 1776. The British were eventually defeated at Yorktown in 1781, leading to recognition of American

Ch. 18 War and Diplomacy Seven Years War PPT Review Game.pptx
The balance of power and reason of state influenced international relations in the 18th century. The Seven Years' War was caused by disputes over the Austrian succession and colonial competition between Britain and France. It resulted in France ceding Canada and territories east of the Mississippi to Britain, making Britain the world's greatest colonial power. The document also discusses the economic changes in Europe during this time including population growth, agricultural revolution in Britain, the rise of banking and global trade, and the early stages of industrialization.
The French and Indian War
The French and Indian War was a conflict between France and Britain for control of North America in the 18th century. France and Britain both claimed land in the Ohio Valley, leading to clashes between their forces. The war expanded into a global conflict known as the Seven Years' War. Key battles included the British defeat at Fort Duquesne in 1754 and their victory at Quebec in 1759. The Treaty of Paris in 1763 ended the war, ceding French North American territories to Britain. This shifted the balance of power in North America and had long-term effects on British-colonial relations.

The American Revolution.pdf
The American Revolution began as early as 1763 with colonists' changing view of themselves from British subjects to independent Americans. This change was driven by conflicts over taxation without representation and British policies after the French and Indian War. The Revolutionary War lasted from 1775-1783, culminating in American independence recognized by the Treaty of Paris in 1783. The new nation then operated under the Articles of Confederation until adopting the U.S. Constitution in 1789.
Lecture 4 Crisis
The French and Indian War from 1756 to 1763 caused Britain to rethink its American empire in three key ways. It increased Britain's colonial holdings but also greatly increased its war debts. The bitter treatment of colonials by British officers during the war created tensions that would intensify. In response, Britain passed new taxes and laws like the Proclamation of 1763 and Stamp Act to tighten control and pay off war debts, igniting conflicts with the colonies over representation and authority.
The sven years war
The document summarizes the Seven Years' War, also known as the French and Indian War, which took place between 1756-1763. It discusses the key parties and reasons for conflict, including territorial disputes between the British and French colonies in North America. The war resulted in major losses for both sides and British victory over the French. Per the Treaty of Paris, Britain gained control of French territories in North America and India, while France lost its colonial empire. However, the economic burden of the war for Britain contributed to tensions that later erupted in the American Revolutionary War.
French Indian War
The document summarizes the key events of the French and Indian War (1756-1763), also known as the Seven Years' War, which was fought between the British and French colonies in North America over control of the Ohio Valley. The war resulted in a British victory and the Treaty of Paris in 1763, in which France ceded its North American territories to Britain. However, the war greatly increased Britain's national debt and its policies towards the colonies after the war frustrated the colonists and contributed to growing tensions that would later erupt in the American Revolutionary War.
Chapter 5 Imperial Reforms and Colonial Protests, 1763-1774
The document provides background information on imperial reforms and colonial protests in the period from 1763-1774. It discusses the large debt Britain faced after the French and Indian War, and the steps it took to try and raise revenue, including passing the Currency Act, Sugar Act, and implementing tighter trade regulations. This led to unrest in the colonies, as the British government sought greater control over the colonies and their trade. Events like the Boston Tea Party and acts like the Stamp Act exacerbated tensions between Britain and its American colonies.
Eight Revolutionary Dominoes
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.
Causes of American Revolution
The document discusses the growing tensions between the British colonies in North America and the British government in the lead up to the American Revolution. It outlines how the French and Indian War resulted in victory for Britain but also large war debts. In response, the British government sought to tighten control over the colonies through measures like new taxes to help pay off the debts, which the colonists strongly opposed. This growing opposition between the colonies and British rule paved the road towards revolution.
7.1 french-and-indian-war
The French established forts throughout North America to control the fur and grain trade, leading to conflicts with British colonists over territory. The French and Indian War erupted as the French and British fought for control of the Ohio River Valley and expanded into a global war. Though the British eventually defeated the French with reinforcements from Pitt, the Treaty of Paris angered American Indians by ceding land and colonial soldiers by poor treatment. This contributed to growing colonial unrest and resistance to British authority.
American revolution
The document provides an overview of European settlement in North America between the 17th and 18th centuries. It summarizes that the French settled in small numbers and focused on fur trading and missionary work with Native Americans. The Spanish sought gold and silver and blended with native cultures. The English settled in larger groups, did not explore inland, and largely wiped out native cultures. It then discusses the conflicts between these European powers over control of North America, culminating in the French and Indian War, which resulted in British control over most of North America by 1763. The document next summarizes the tensions that arose between the British and colonists in the aftermath of the war, including the Proclamation of 1763, taxation acts like the Stamp Act
