Answer:

Explanation: The French and Indian War was a conflict between the American colonists and the French took over control of the Ohio Valley and the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers—modern day Pittsburgh. It received its title because the war was Britain and its American colonies fighting against the French and their Indian allies.
