During the French and Indian Wars, both British and French forces, along with their respective Native American allies, committed massacres against prisoners and civilians. Notable incidents include the British-led attack on the French settlement of Fort William Henry in 1757, where British troops and their Native allies killed many French soldiers and Indigenous allies. Similarly, French forces and their allies executed brutal raids on British settlements, resulting in significant civilian casualties. These acts of violence were fueled by the intense competition for territory and resources in North America.

What did Nazis do with captured enemy?

It generally depended on who was involved. Western European prisoners were treated much better than Eastern European prisoners. Eastern Europeans were most often killed or died of starvation. They were often made into slave laborers. Of the Western European prisoners, the British & Americans were treated better than the French, Belgian, Dutch or Italian (after Italy surrendered to the Allies) prisoners. Normally British & Americans were not killed or treated as slave laborers. The French, Belgian, Dutch & Italians were often sent to slave labor camps, and starved. Of the Germans that held prisoners, the SS were the worse offenders against prisoners, and the Luftwaffe (Air Force) treated their prisoners the best. Also civilian prisoners were treated worse than military prisoners.
