	The French and Indian War
		The French and Indian War was a war by proxy initially, and was one of a chain of conflicts stretching back almost a century.

		The war was triggered by the actions of the military force led by Washington in 1754, but had Washington not been in charge of the Virginia response to the French incursion then a war would have been triggered by some other incident in the 1750's.

	The Colonial Wars (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Rightly called “Wars for Empire”, these conflicts were extensions of wars that had erupted on the European mainland or on the high seas over balance of power, expansionism, mercantilism, and Indian alliances.
		The first of these conflicts was King William’s War (1689-1697) or the War of the League of Augsburg in Europe; Queen Anne’s War (1702-1711) or the War of the Spanish Succession; King George’s War (1744-1748) or the War of the Austrian Succession.
		Unlike previous colonial wars, this one was fought with North American as the primary theater of operations and was France’s last-ditch effort to save her dwindling New World possessions from the English and her Native American allies.
