The French & Indian War

                                                             
                             The French and Indian War, also known as the Seven Year's War, started around 1754. The war took place in North America and was fought between Great Britain and France. Also, the Native Americans parted with the French as allies during the war. The cause of the war occurred when there was an argument of the control of both the Monongahela and the Allegheny rivers. After the dispute between Britain and France, violence broke out into the Battle of Jumonville Glen which happened in May 1754. The results of the war ended in 1763 with a British Victory over France. The British then departed from the colonies and after the war, the Treaty of Paris was signed.
