Best Answer

Michigan was part of the Ohio River Valley, which is an area located in the Contiguous United States today that the British won from the French in the Seven Years' War. When the United States achieved independence from Great Britain, the territory was then transfered from Great Britain to the US, along with the 13 colonies.
