Answer:

When France was expelled from Canada in 1763, many indigenous groups (13 tribes) rebelled against the new British occupiers, unhappy with their treatment and the presence of settlers eager to settle on their lands around the Great Lakes, in the current border between Canada and the United States.  

The leaders of the insurrection were Pontiac (Ottawa), Guyasuta, (Seneca) and Kaske, (Shawnee), influenced by the prophet Neolin, who proposed to return to the indigenous life expelling the Europeans and all their customs.

At first, the rebel action was based on the destruction of the forts of the area and the extermination of all its inhabitants. At Fort Pitt, after looting twelve military places, the Delawareans were presented with blankets that had been in contact with the sick and the smallpox, with the idea of ​​infecting them, although without results. Shortly after, the objective was the caravans of supplies and, later, the harassment of the settlers that were being installed in Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. The violence of these attacks produced the reaction of the settlers, who organized systematic massacres of Indians, until in 1764, Benjamin Franklin achieved a precarious peace supported by regular troops. In parallel, it was again offered, as in other wars, a reward for killing an Indian, whether man, woman or child. The British later tried conciliation through treaties. Two years later a formal peace treaty was signed in the Colony of New York.

As your textbook discusses, a statistician once discovered that in one of the United States there was a negative correlation bet
svetlana [45]

Answer: correlation vs. causation

Explanation:

Correlation assesses the relationship between variables and can be in the same direction,  where the increase in one exists as the same time as an increase in the other variable or inverse where an increase in one variable occurs when there is a decrease in the second variable. However, this correlation does not indicate causation.

Causation signifies that one variable is responsible for the occurrence of  an event in the other variable. Clearly, there is no cause and effect between the number of mules and doctorate degrees in a state. Here, there is a correlation but a fundamental causative factor is absent between the two events.
