The French and Indian War took place in 1754-1763,The French and Indian War was fought between British America and New France.The French and Indian War was fought because both France and British America wanted control of the trade routes.Specifically the Allegheny River and the Monongahela River now present day Pennsylvania.In the end of the war France was outmatched by Britain,thus the Treaty of Paris was signed on February 10th of 1763.Which entailed France to cede from the war but keep to islands with fishing rights,these islands are the present day Caribbean islands which France though would yield them much sugar cane.
