This class discusses a military conflict. There will be mention of killing and death. In the French Indian War/Seven Year War, there were political winners and losers, but these will be explained only from the political viewpoint of the French and the British. I will discuss how the Native nations lost both culturally and politically, regardless of which side they were fighting on.

Learners will receive a unique and private code each week to access the quizzes. No personal information is required to use these review games.
