Best Answer

The French and Indian War began because of the American colonists and the French colonists both wanting to move into the area west of the Appalachian Mtns. Since the colonists wanted to farm there and the French wanted to fur trap, they could not coexist in the same area. So pretty much, the French and their Native American allies fought against Britain, the American colonists, and their Native American allies.
