During the French and Indian War that started in 1756 and ended in 1763, both nations fought for territory disputes.

Then, many Native American Indian tribes allied on the side of the French because they treated Indians much better than the English colonist. The key issue was that the French did not want the land to settle in or to send French people to inhabit those lands. They were mostly interested in the fur trade.
