The French and Indian war was the result of a clash between the French and the English. The results of the war ended the French power in the North Colonies and gave the winning side- the english- land and power but also war debt. Salutary Neglect was an undocumented agreement between the colonies and the English where the motherland would go easy on the colonies in exchange for their loyalty. The period of salutary neglect was over after The French and Indian war, the English were no longer lenient towards the colonies and wanted to enforce mercantilism. The proclamation of 1763 was a declaration after the end of salutary neglect which forbid colonists from settling west of the Appalachians which the British won from The French and Indian war.…
The French and Indian War had begun in 1754 because of a boundary dispute between the French and the British. The French argued that the British had settled along the Ohio Valley that was located in their territory, thus resulting in a brutal event that is also known as the Seven Years’ War. The relationship between Britain and its North American Colonies was modified due to the French and Indian War because of the land acquisitions and economy that forever changed the way they communicated and interacted with each other. For there are many reasons why the British and North American Colonies’ relationship have altered, the land acquisition largely contributed to the way they communicate and interact post-war.…

During the war the French allied itself with several Native American Tribes (hence the name “French and Indian War”). This war ended after the British captured “major cities and forts in Canada…
Unequal Distribution of Blame A disastrous and chaotic time period of unconsolable mothers, wives, and children being left without the love of their family members and having to mourn on their deaths, was the result of something that could have been avoided, but was caused by confusion and pride. Europe was an envied nation due to their advance in technology, art, and music. Everything seemed to be going too well for the Europeans, but soon enough, everything changed. Europe had hope of creating a system which balanced the amount of power each nation had, in order to diminish the chances of one nation taking over the other, but many complications made it difficult for that plan to work out.…
The end of the French and Indian war in 1763 was a victory for England. Having defeated one of their most powerful European rivals, the French, the British felt confident they had control over the majority of the American continent. However, the victory was very costly, and resulted in Britain’s decision to increase revenue from their mainland colonies. The British government did this through a number of taxation and legislation. These actions had adverse effects because they were rejected by the colonies and started a revolution.…
The British colonies were going well in the 1700’s. There were conflicts with the Native Americans but nothing really too large.

This war was closely related to the fur trade.…

Great Britain's initial attempt at controlling the colonists was the Proclamation of 1763, one of the results of the Seven Years’ War, which is also as the French and Indian War. This particular war was fought between Britain and France when disputes arose over French expansion into the Ohio River Valley in 1756; at the end of the war, the British received territories from France and Spain that therefore launched their expansion westward. Clearly, the British wanted to control westward expansion, and so they wrote what became known as the Proclamation of 1763. The Proclamation of 1763 largely favored Britain’s aspirations; its purpose was to end Pontiac's Rebellion, a war led by an Indian leader who wanted to protest the policies created by…
Along with Florida, Great Britain also gained territory in French Canada. The map of colonial Empires in North America in 1754 and 1763, shows the shift of colonial power before and after the French and Indian War (document A). At the start of the war, France owned all the land from the Appalachian Mountains to the Rockies. More importantly, France had claims to the Mississippi River, a major transportation hub, allowing them to greatly expand their trade. At the end of the war however, France’s rule in North America became nonexistent, making them no longer a threat to the English colonies.…
The Seven Years’ War was one that had two imperialist superpowers engaged in battle over territory in North America. While Britain and France were the two major countries at play, other countries became involved through alliances, causing the war to become a possibility for the first global war. Nevertheless, the war’s main focus was in North America. Native American tribes were also involved such as the Algonquins, who sided with the French in battle; the Iroquois alongside the American colonists fought for the British. As for the front in America, scholars and writers have differing opinions as to whether the Seven Years’ War transformed the colonial life, causing them to push towards a revolution and independence.…
The relationship between the American Colonies and Great Britain were changed economically and politically after the seven years’ war (1756-1763). The conclusion of the war led to more events that began with The British Empire restriction on the expansion on settlings of colonists towards the states that were abandoned by the French colonies. The Great Britain won the war, so they went into deep debts which led to unfair taxation of the colonists. The real shift in mutual relationship is rooted in the atmosphere of Proclamation 1763. The Royal Proclamation of 1763 was seen as being useful to the Native American Indians and Great Britain; however it was a disadvantage to the colonists.…
