Explanation:

It is known as the French and Indian War (1754-1763) as part of the Seven Years War developed in North America. The name refers to the two main enemies that the British faced: French and different tribes of Native Americans.

The contest was developed during nine years, in principle with clear French predominance, although the final result was favorable to Great Britain by conquering Canada. The peace was reached with the Treaty of Paris and meant the loss of all French continental possessions.

During the war, France lost control over all of its Canadian possessions, which was ratified by the Treaty of Paris. He lost all his colonies east of the Mississippi, except Saint Pierre and Miquelon, two islands near Newfoundland. In the Caribbean, it only maintained the islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique.

Great Britain had clearly been the great victor of the conflict, managing to dominate the entire east coast of North America and eliminating a rival colonial empire that prevented it from spreading inland. It also gained importance in Caribbean waters thanks to the numerous places won to the French.
