    The French and Indian War was a significant turning point in the history of the United States and a long-term cause of the American Revolution. Before the French and Indian War, the colonies were largely left alone as part of Britain's policy of salutary neglect toward the colonies. The expensive French and Indian War changed this, as the British changed their focus from promoting profitable trade to generating direct revenue through taxation. The British abandonment of salutary neglect caused immediate tensions between the colonists and the British government over taxation, trade, and troops in the colonies. Thirteen years after the French and Indian War, the Thirteen Colonies would declare their independence from Great Britain.
    The content of this lecture forms the beginning of Period 3 for AP US History and this video will be helpful for teachers and students seeking to review for the APUSH exam.

    Please make more APUSH videos, I used your videos all last year for Euro but now there doesn't seem to be too much APUSH content. Especially in later periods

    So the colonists drove out the French from "Big" Louisiana? What happened to the French in that region when Independence was declared (I'm an Aussie intrigued by this history but can't readily see an epilogue to this French-Indian War in my youtube feed)

    • @tomrichey
      @tomrichey  6 лет назад +3

      The thing is that the French never had a lot of colonists to begin with outside of New Orleans (in "Small" Louisiana) and a handful of forts and settlements along the Great Lakes (e.g., Detroit, Montreal). There were some French inhabitants in Louisiana at the time of the Louisiana purchase, but they were quickly outnumbered by Anglo settlers, although many would (and still do) play a prominent role in the state's government.

    Effects of the war: Tension creates... taxation, troops, and trade restrictions. Which led to the revolution.

    Would you say that the Proclamation of 1763 and the colonists desire to continue expanding west was also a major cause of the American Revolution? PS: thanks for the great video.

    • @tomrichey
      @tomrichey  6 лет назад +2

      +Pallav Chaturvedi This can definitely be a cause though I wouldn't overstate it in comparison to disputes over taxation and British troops in the colonies.

  • @aolcom-nl9qb

    The British Royal Navy was always a trump card, besides that the war was a world war over colonial possession mainly between France and allies against England and Prussia.

  • @raginbakin1430
    @raginbakin1430 4 года назад

    What do you mean by the fact that the British gov't's goal before the war was only trade? Wouldn't they always want revenue from their colonies?

    • @tomrichey
      @tomrichey  4 года назад +1

      Trade is good for the economy, generally. By not actively taxing trade before the war, Parliament supported overall economic growth.

    • @raginbakin1430
      @raginbakin1430 4 года назад

      ​@@tomrichey Oh, okay, thanks! So it's the difference between overall economic growth and direct revenue to the government... and after the F and I war, Parliament needed more of the latter because of all the deficits... I see.

    Mad Facts

    The framing of this is missing a vital component. The lust for land by the colonists and the costs of wars they were starting--the French and Indian War was a world war--necessitated enforcement of the Proclamation of 1763. If someone doubles the national debt because they want to take land from the Indians, yes, they have some fiscal responsibility.
    It is a precursor to the Bundys and their belief that they should get land for free as colonists/Americans, regardless of treaties with Indigenous nations.
