aug 27, 1754 - Seven Years War

Description:

The Seven Years War Started over a conflict in the Ohio River valley. The reason that there was conflict was because the colonists starting moving west, but the French wanted to keep that territory because they had trading posts set up to connect from Canada to Louisiana. The French had won early battles but in the end, were defeated by the British and with the victory they set up the Proclamation Line of 1763 which limited the colonists crossing west of the Appalachians and was very unpopular among the colonists.
