The French and Indian War began with Britain and France contesting territories in the Ohio Valley. George Washington accompanied by Tanaghrisson encountered a French detachment and engaged in a brief fight before the commander of the French group informed them that he was there on a peaceful mission, aimed at warning the British about entering French territories. Tanaghrisson, harboring a hatred for the French, killed the man. After this, Washington tried to construct a fort to fight the French, but was defeated. Upon hearing of Washington's defeat, Lt.Gov. Dimwiddle sent word to the Prime Minister who sent Braddock in to escalate the war.
