Answer 2

Explanation: The role played by the Ohio River Valley in the growing conflict between French, Native Americans and British was to allow geographically the union of French Louisiana and Canada, which represented great benefits to the French, so they entered into dispute through this part of the American territory with the English who also intended to extend colonially to that part. There was also participation of Native Americans in this conflict. This event led to the Seven Years' War.
