The French and Indian War was a major war fought in the American Colonies between 1754 and 1763. (9 years)
The French and British fought in the war. Both sides had American Indian allies. The French allied with several tribes including the Shawnee, Lenape, Ojibwa Ottawa and the Algonquin peoples. The British allied with the Iroquois, Catawba, and the Cherokee.
The war was fought mostly in the Northeast along the border between the British colonies and the French Colonies of New France.
The War ended on Feb 10th, 1763 with the signing of the Treaty of Paris. France gave up their North American territory. Britain gained all the land east of the Mississippi River and Spain gained the land west of the Mississippi.
Which means French lost and British won.
