Our timeline will begin with the French and Indian War
The French and Indian War in North Americawas part of a larger war between Great Britain and France known as The Seven Years’ War. The French and Indian War began in 1754 and ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The land claimed by France, and Florida claimed by Spain became part of Great Britain when the French and the Spanish signed the Treaty of Paris, but Britain had borrowed money to pay for the war and needed to pay the loans back. Britain began imposing taxes to raise money to pay back the loans. Britain also tried to limit Anglo-American colonists from moving west.
