The '''French and Indian War''' was a military conflict between 1754 and 1763, which took place between the armies and Native American allies of both the [[United Kingdom|British Empire]]'s [[United States|colonies]], and their French colonial counterparts in not only present day United States and [[Canada]] but also in the [[Caribbean]].

A theater of the much wider [[Seven Years' War]], the conflict ended with the official signing of the Treaty of Paris on 15 February, and the ceding of Canada and [[Florida]] to Britain, ensuring the survival of the Thirteen Colonies.<ref name="ACRG">''[[Assassin's Creed: Rogue]]''</ref>

The war was fought primarily along the [[Frontier|frontiers]], separating New France from the British colonies spanning Virginia to Nova Scotia. This conflict involved [[Templars]] manipulation, with the perpetrators composing of [[Haytham Kenway]], [[William Johnson]], [[Shay Cormac]] and others. In contrast, the [[Colonial Assassins]] allied themselves primarily with the French-native alliance, and helped them in several conflicts, most notably the [[Siege of Fort William Henry]].<ref name="ACRG"/>

The armies marched their way through different forts during the [[Braddock Expedition]], an ambush led by [[Edward Braddock]].<ref name="AC3">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref>

In 1760, the French Empire sold the west side of New France to the Spanish Empire, that bordered [[Mexico]], which they renamed Spanish Louisiana.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed III: Liberation]]''</ref>

At the end of the conflict, numerous [[British Army|British soldiers]] were killed, including Edward Braddock, as a result of an assassination plot created by Haytham.<ref name="AC3"/>

At the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1763, the Thirteen Colonies had successfully conquered New France and expanded into unharmed Indian territory, where they continued to displace the natives. Some indigenous tribes were forced to migrate as far west as Spanish Louisiana.<ref name="AC3"/>

The British had also taken over French Canada along with most of the French islands in the Caribbean and the west of Spanish Florida, which the British renamed West Florida. However, they were all separate nations from the Thirteen Colonies. After the war, all that remained of the French Empire in North America were the two Caribbean islands of Guadeloupe and [[Martinique]].<ref name="AC3"/>
