What were the main causes of the French and Indian War?

Answer 1

The French were beginning to expand their territory (between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River). Once they took the area we now call Louisiana, the British became concerned, and they reacted to their concern. The FI War was a war of preventitive maintenance. The British won (with the help of colonists) and their Empire expanded all the way to the Mississippi River. Ironically, the FI War united colonists in a way they had never been united before. Their new sense of brotherhood influenced their reaction against the British for imposing many new taxes (to pay for the FI War). The outrage over the taxation was a key reason why the American Revolution began.

Answer 2

In its simplest terms, the British and French fought over which colonial power would dominate North America. The Native Americans for the most part were allied with the French. This was not always the case however, and the many Native Tribes sometimes were on the British side.
