FRENCH AND INDIAN WAR KEY EVENTS:

1) George Washington's march on Pittsburgh; discovery of French Ft. Duquense; building of temporary Ft. Necessity

2) William Pitt becomes Prime Minister of Britain; turns his focus to spending money for war supplies to aid the colonies

3) Britain and the colonists defeat the French in a surprise attack at the Battle of Quebec on the Plains of Abraham

4) Treaty of Paris (1763) is established forcing French to give up lands in America; Britain gains all lands east of Mississippi River, including Florida (from Spain); Spain gains lands west of Mississippi River

5) Pontiac's War - Pontiac, a Native American leader, rallies Indian forces to revolt against colonial expansion in Ohio River Valley

6) Proclamation of 1763 is issued by Britain restraining colonial expansion - colonists were not enabled to explore lands west of Appalachian Mountains...this angered colonists, especially those who invested in new lands

What about talking about the different phases of the war:

1st: King William's War (1st phase) 1690-1697 ended with the signing of the Treaty of Ryswick in 1697

2nd: Queen Anne's War (2nd phase) 1702-1713 raid at Deerfield in 1704

3rd: King George's War (3rd phase) 1744-1748 Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle

4th: Seven Years' War (final Phase)1756-1763 Most dramatic

Hope this helps!

The British launched a three part attack to help turn the war.

1. Louisbourg

2. Fort Carillon

3. Fort Frontenac

History is not my main suit, so I hope this is accurate.
