| 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.
| |
| | |
| It happened in [[North America]], in not only the present day [[United States]] and [[Canada]] but also the rival islands in the [[Caribbean Sea]].
| |
| | |
| A theater of the much wider [[Seven Years' War]], the conflict ended with the official signing of the Treaty of Paris on February 15, and the ceding of [[Canada]] and [[Florida]] to Britain, ensuring the survival of the Thirteen Colonies.
| |
| | |
| 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]].
| |
| | |
| The armies marched their way through different forts during the [[Braddock Expedition]], an ambush led by Braddock.
| |
| | |
| 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.
| |
| | |
| 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.
| |
| | |
| However, the French Empire were allowed to keep the two islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique.
