The French built forts on land claimed by the Virginia colony so they could easily trade with Native Americans. This angered the colonists and an army led by G.W. tried to push them out but the British defended themselves and this started a war between the British and French. The Native Americans also fought on the side of the French since some were allies with them. ]]> 2016-12-05 17:25:06 UTC https://padlet.com/vsavas/3kroqrw58mvf/wish/141815998 vsavas https://padlet.com/vsavas/3kroqrw58mvf/wish/141816193 The British defeated France in 1763.
