Question

How did scarcity of land affect Americans before the French and Indian war?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The French and Indian War had a dramatic effect on the American colonies. Britain was occupied with the Seven Years War with France and had kind of left the American colonies to its own devices. The crown was very lax in tax collection during the war. Colonial leaders enjoyed a great deal of autonomy in this periodAt the conclusion of the American theater of the Seven Years War, the relationship with the English crown was in flux. The war changed the economic and political dynamic. Britain had incurred heavy debt in the process of conducting war. Its plan was to collect more revenue from the colonists. The American colonists were not happy with this process because it affected important import industries like rum production.
