Category:The Seven Years War

The Seven Years War, also known as the French and Indian War, was a conflict between Britain and their allies vs France and their allies from 1756 to 1763, and can be considered one of the first World Wars due to its global nature and its multiple fronts from the Americas to Europe and Asia. While there were no territorial changes in Europe, France was forced out of North America and their former territory went to England and Spain, Spain ceded Florida and Manila to England, and the Mughal Empire in India gave the region of Bengal to England. The pausing of western expansion to Native American Territory won in the war contributed to the American Revolution.
