!!! One Medal Question !!! How did victory in the French and Indian War have negative results for the British?
The French and Indian War caused Great Britain to lose a lot of their money. So to get the amount of money back, Britain taxed the 13 colonies. But the majority of the people were raged upon King George III so they dumped the tea from the Tea Act into Boston Harbor, also known as the Boston Tea Party.
Wasn't it the "Sugar Act" ?
No the Sugar Act was taxed for three cents from the British.
Can u find the answer in this paragraph because i cant find it ! The two sides ended their rivalry in North America in the French and Indian War, fought between 1754 and 1763. The war began when Virginia troops led by George Washington marched to the Ohio River to drive out the French. The French and their Native American allies easily defeated both this force and a British army that came the next year. Then, in a great victory, the British defeated the French at Quebec in 1759. France was forced to give Canada to the British and New Orleans to Spain. Although the victor, Britain still had trouble. Native Americans were angered by colonists moving west. Pontiac's uprising captured eight British forts. After defeating Pontiac, the British banned settlement west of the Appalachian Mountains, which angered the colonists. The French and Indian War produced other trouble. The British left 10,000 troops in the colonies to keep the peace. Colonists feared they could be used to suppress their rights. The British and colonists also clashed over British efforts to raise money to pay for the war. When the royal governor of Massachusetts issued search warrants to find smugglers, colonists protested. A new British law, the Sugar Act of 1764, put duties on some previously untaxed imports and changed the rules for trying smuggling cases. Colonists argued that the new law violated their rights.
"The British and colonists also clashed over British efforts to raise money to pay for the war." Hopefully that's the answer.
