USA HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -In 1758, the tide turned when the British captured Louisbourg, followed by Quebec City in 1759 and Montreal in 1760. With the Treaty of Paris of 1763, France formally ceded Canada to the British. The Seven Years’ War therefore laid the bicultural foundations of modern Canada.

Detailed explanation-2: -May 1, 1759: The British capture the French Island of Guadeloupe in the Caribbean. July 25, 1759: British take Fort Niagara; French abandon Crown Point. British now control entire western frontier. Sept 13, 1759 – Quebec: British win Battle of Quebec.

Detailed explanation-3: -The French and Indian War ended after the British defeated the French in Quebec. In 1760 the British took over Fort Pontchartrain (at Detroit) and renamed it Fort Detroit, effectively ending the war. However, the war “officially” ended in 1763 (when Britain and France signed the Treaty of Paris) in 1763.

Detailed explanation-4: -About 13, 000 soldiers under Louis-Joseph de Montcalm, Marquis de Saint-Veran, defended Quebec and its surroundings. This garrison consisted of French regulars, colonial militia and Native Americans. Only around 4, 500 of these troops actually took part in the battle.

Detailed explanation-5: -Larger numbers and better resources. In the end, it all came down to the fact that the British outnumbered the French, and even though The French did very well with guerilla tactics, it was the major battles that mattered, killing French soldiers that were not easily replaceable.
