The Seven Years' War, which lasted from 1756 to 1763, got its name because it spanned a period of seven years of intense global conflict involving many of the great powers of the time. The war is often considered the first "world war" due to its battles taking place in Europe, North America, the Caribbean, West Africa, India, and the Philippines. The name reflects the duration of the conflict, although the underlying tensions and skirmishes had been building for years prior to its official start.
