French and Indian War

The French and Indian War had affected the realtions between the British and the French. This war was part of the world-wide Seven Years' War, which was fought from the New World, to Europe, and even the Phillipines. France, being concentrated on Europe, was unable to send reinforcements to the New World. This caused the British to defeat the French and take over Canada. Canada, being under British control, caused the French Acadians to be pushed far south into territories such as Louisiana. Though the French were extremely angered by the British they were unable to respond due to the lack of force. This established British supremacy over the French in the New World. Since this moment on, Britain dominated the colonial north of Canada, and taunted the now weakened French of the south (predominantly Louisiana). This victory by the British caused a prolonged Seven Years' War. Overall, the British established supremacy in the New World.
