Early American History Unit 2: The American Colonies: Discovery to 1763 The Seeds of Conflict: The French-Indian War ( ) The Death of General Wolfe (1770) by Benjamin West

The Colonies’ Relationship with Britain – England’s policy was salutary neglect toward the colonies. Navigation Acts were not really enforced. This means leaving the colonies to basically govern themselves to ensure prosperity for both sides. Mercantilism – the belief a nation’s prosperity is linked to a strong economy. This was accomplished by a favorable balance of trade (more exports than imports), amassing gold and silver, and maintaining colonies (markets for mother country’s products + sources of raw materials.

Why did the Relationship Go Bad? The traditions of limited monarchy and self- government in the colonies benefited both sides ($$$!) and everyone was happy. Britain & France fought a series of costly wars between & relationship changed. Why was Great Britain so worried about France? King George III = Tyrant! Along with Parliament, they will end salutary neglect.

The French Menace in the Ohio Valley King William’s War ( ), Queen Anne’s War ( ), King George’s War ( ) were all N. American wars where the French incited and sometimes aided Indian attacks vs. colonial settlements in NE and NY. These wars began in Europe & spread to the colonies. England gained Nova Scotia, the Hudson Bay, and Newfoundland in Canada from France, but little was changed in America – France authorizes construction of new forts from Lake Erie to the Ohio River in W. PA. Fort Duquesne (1754) was taken from an English construction crew and completed before a young planter/ surveyor/ Lt. Col & 150 Virginia militia could arrive to protect them. Washington attacked, but the French outnumbered them. Fort Necessity was built then surrounded, but the French let them go. Thus, began the French-Indian War. Lt. Col. George Washington
