Answer:

The correct answer is after the Seven Years' War.

Step-by-step explanation:

Seven Years' War was a global conflict that happened between 1756 and 1763, affecting countries in several continents: Europe, the Americas, West Africa, and Asia. Some writers consider the end of this war as the beginning of the American Revolution. The word American started being used by the colonist during this period to refer to themselves.
