Question

How is the Seven Years War related to the French and Indian War? The French and Indian War directly caused the Seven Years' War. The French and Indian War was part of the Seven Years' War. The Seven Years' War was more of a land war than the French and Indian War. The Seven Years' War was fought over debt from the French and Indian War.

Answer 1

Answer: In Europe, the French and Indian War is conflated into the Seven Years' War and not given a separate name. "Seven Years" refers to events in Europe, from the official declaration of war in 1756—two years after the French and Indian War had started—to the signing of the peace treaty in 1763.
