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.
