French and Indian War

     I found out that we were fighting because i was a part of it. I heard about it at first.
     The Battle of Quebec was an easy battle. The British seen a trail that led to it and it wasn't guarded. So they went trough the trail and surprised the French. British defeated them very easily. 
     The Treaty of Paris set the end of France as a power in North America. North America was now divided between Great Britain and Spain.
     Pontiac thought of the British as a threat to his people's way of life. He then wanted the Native American groups to unite and fight us British people. In 1763, Pontiac captured some of our outposts. Later on, Natives stared killing settlers along the Pennsylvania and Virginia frontiers. When the war ended Pontiac signed a peace treaty.
     I don't like the Proclomation of 1763 because it keeps everyone from expanding there businesses and keeps people from exploring the rest of the continent.

Conflicts Arise

     We and the French are fighting. We're fighting because we both want to take over the Ohio River Valley territory. Another reason, is we both want wealth and empires.
     I try not to let it bother me. But it's kind of hard to stay away from it. If it comes down to fighting, I will fight.
     I don't know what to think of George Washington. As long as he keeps everything peaceful, I will be peaceful too.
     I agree with the Albany Plan of Union. I think that we should all get together and work out our differences. I know that probably won't happen but it's worth the try.
     I think there will be a war soon. Everyone is fighting and they can't resolve it. The only way it's going to get resoved is if there is a war.

My Culture

     I am so glad a Chritian Church opened. Now I can go whenever they get schedules set up. I can't wait!!!!!! I'll get to meet a lot of new people. Maybe I can make some friends that like to hang out a lot. I'll have to wait and see.
     When I went to school I had good education. Well obviously I did if I have a job that pays good money. But I was a good student when I was in school. I was one of the best students in high school.
     Our government is good. We can practice whatever religion we want. And the colonists get to elect our governor and legislature. We could take part in government. Only if we got elected.
     The Glorious Revolution is the best thing ever. It helped out England and America. I'm very glad it happened.
     The Navigation Acts doesn't really effect my family. But it effects the industry. It doesn't effect my family because we still get paid the same amount of money.

All About Me

     My name is Max and I am 18 years old. I live in Rhode Island. My family is wealthy. My dad is in a big industry along with my mom. I work everyday to get enough money so I can possibly move out and be on my own. Yet I kind of like it at my parents house.
     Like I said; I work everyday for about 8 hours. After that I go home, eat, sleep and get up and work around the house.
     My parents are out of the house working everyday. When they get home I have already made food for them. The house is clean so they don't have to do anything. Then we have a family night. Sometimes we watch movies, or we play games. We have a good time together as a family!!!!!!!!!!
