Document Summary
The year 1700 is characterized by french domination of north america. Britain has only the 13 colonies at this time, but it will acquire more by 1713. Ohio and everything between the mississippi and the appalachian mountains is as yet unclaimed. By the treaty of utrecht in 1713, france is forced to cede acadia, french newfoundland, and the area surrounding. Ohio and inner quebec remains disputed between the two countries. After losing the seven years war, france was forced to sign the treaty of paris in 1763, for a time pushing france out of north america. New france, cape breton island (ile royale), prince edward island (ile saint-jean), ohio, and everything east of the mississippi were ceded to great britain. The remainder of french louisiana was ceded to. For a time, this made britain the dominant power on the continent. The royal proclamation of october 1763 was an attempt by the british to consolidate their new conquests in north.
