Throughout much of the the 1600s, Great Britain had left is American colonies to run themselves. Since the colonists had such freedom to choose as they saw fit, a variety of different, and unique, representative governments were established and developed. By the late 1600s though, a number of key events occur that will lead people to challenge the ultimate authority of monarchs, promote the ideas of spiritual equality, and call into question what the true relationship between a government and its people should be. These events, as well as England's attempts to take back more control over the colonies, will have a major impact on colonial society. =The French & Indian War (1754 - 1763)=

The French and Indian war was fought between Britain and France from 1754 to 1763 for colonial dominance in North America. American colonists dutifully fought alongside British soldiers, while the French allied themselves with several Native American tribes (hence the name “French and Indian War”). This war ended after the British captured most of France’s major cities and forts in Canada and the Ohio Valley.
