Do you mean real Indians or Native Americans? Both were fighting during the Seven Years War.

In America; Basically mainly France with the major exception of the Iroquois.

The Iroquois and Cherokee (for a bit) sided with Britain, while most of the other major tribes and tribe groupings sided with France - being the Wabanaki and Algonquin groups and the Mohawks (technically part of the Iroquois), the Ojibwa and their allies in the Three Fires Council. That is not an exhaustive list I'm afraid.

In India the war was mainly between the two great trading companies; Bengal went with France's Compagnie des Indes Orientales and Carnatic was a British East India CompanyAlly, also there were many "Sepoys" Indian troops and units on both sides in the pay of the companies.

Why was the French and Indian War called the French and Indian War?

The name comes from the fact that Indian tribes (Native Americans) were fighting for the French against the British, who were encroaching on the tribal lands. Actually, many tribes resented the French as well, and sided with the British and colonials.The French and Indian War was the first war that started in North America and spread to Europe. It involved the French based in Canada on one side against the British based in New England and the middle colonies on the other side. While Indians fought on both sides, the French were often more successful at not antagonizing the natives,and so the vast majority of the native auxiliaries involved were on the French side. From a British American point of view, the colonists were fighting against the French and the Indians, hence the name 'French and Indian War'. In Europe and elsewhere, it was and still is known as the Seven Years War.One cause of the war was that both the British and the French claimed the vast territory between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River. The French were doing well by trapping and by trading furs with the Indians, and they feared being displaced by British settlers.


What is the French and Indian War?

It was the North American part of the Seven Years War; basically, only people from the USA call it the "French and Indian War". It was mostly fought by French colonists and their American Indian allies against British colonists along with their American Indian allies. Britain and her allies eventually won the Seven Years War, forcing France to give up most of her territory in North America. The outcome of the French and Indian War would eventually lead to the American Revolutionary War, which started about 12 years after it ended.
