Many treaty’s occurred because of the seven years war some of these treatys would be:   The treaty of Saints Petersburg (1762) The treaty of Hamburg (1762) Treaty of Paris (1763) Treaty of Hurbertsburg (1763) There are many different outcomes because of the different countries that were in the Seven Years War. One of the biggest outcomes was, the Quebec Act of 1774 and The Royal Proclamation. What happened during the Quebec Act of 1774. -The province's territory was expanded to take over part of the Native Reserve, including much of what is now southern Ontario, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, and parts of Minnesota. -The oath of allegiance was now not a reference from the protestant faith -It guaranteed free practice of the Catholic faith. -It restored the use of the French civil law for private matters, except that in unison with the English common law, it granted unlimited testamentary freedom. It maintained English common law for public administration, including criminal prosecution. -It restored the Catholic church's right to impose tithes.

4. The royal proclamation, the Royal Proclamation was: The Royal Proclamation of 1763 was issued October 7, 1763, by King George III following Great Britain's achievements of French territory in North America after the end of the French and First Nations War/Seven Years' War. The purpose of the proclamation was to organize Great Britain's new North American Empire and to stabilize relations with Native North Americans through regulation of trade, settlement and land purchases on the western frontier. The Royal Proclamation continues to be of legal importance to First Nations in Canada. It is also a significance for the variation of aboriginal status in the United States. It eventually ensured that British culture and laws were applied in Upper Canada after 1791, which was done to attract British settlers to the province.

5. New France and the First Nations during the seven years war. The French and Indian War (1754–1763) is the American name for the North American theater of the Seven Years' War. The war was fought mostly between the colonies of British America and New France, with both sides supported by military units from their home countries of Great Britain and France, who declared war on each other in 1756. In the same year, the war escalated from a regional affair into a world-wide conflict. The name is in reference to the two main enemies of the British colonists: the royal French forces and the various Native forces partnered with them. British and European historians use the term the Seven Years' War, as do many Canadians. Canadian historians avoid the term "French and Indian War", preferring the term Anglo-French rivalry instead. The nation of Canada descends from British and French settlers as well as indigenous Aboriginal peoples. French Canadians call it La guerre de la Conquête ("The War of Conquest"). The war was fought mostly along the front part separating New France from the British colonies from Virginia to Nova Scotia. The French were greatly outnumbered, so they made a great use if the First Nations. It began with a disagreement over control of the meeting of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers, called the Forks of the Ohio, which is now in the present day Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The disagreement explode into violence in the Battle of Jumonville Glen in May 1754. British operations in 1755, 1756 and 1757 in the frontier areas of Pennsylvania and New York all failed, due to a combination of poor management and internal divisions. The French and the Natives worked well together but the offence was poor. So in an overview of this paragraph would be: the French and the Aboriginals allied and lost the war because of there terrible military strategies and unbalanced communication

6. European and Native American military strategies & the thin red line The Thin Red Line was a military action by the Sutherland Highlanders red-coated 93rd Company at the Battle of Balaclava on 25 October 1854, during the Crimean War. In this event, the 93rd, helped by a small force of Royal Marines, led by Sir Colin Campbell, and they were routed by a Russian cavalry charge. Earlier, Campbell’s Highland Brigade had taken part in actions at the Battle of Alma and the Siege of Sevastopol. There were more Victoria Crosses presented to the Highland soldiers at that time than at any other. The event was galvanized in the British press and became an icon of the qualities of the red coat in a war that was poorly managed and increasingly unpopular. So basically a bunch of royal marines, and military soldiers died during this action.
