 |
 | |  |
| The French and Indian War was when the British wanted to settle in the Ohio River Valley and to trade with the Native Americans who lived there. | |

| Did they also call it the Seven Year War?? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Yeah! The French built forts to protect their trade with the Indians. In 1754, George Washington led an army against the French. He was defeated. Britain declared war on France. | |
