The territory north of the original American colonies was primarily settled by European powers such as the French and the British. The French established settlements in Canada and along the Great Lakes, while the British laid claim to parts of present-day Canada. Indigenous peoples inhabited these regions long before European arrival, having established their own communities and cultures. The competition for these territories eventually led to conflicts, including the French and Indian War.
