Описание: The political and military tensions in North America preceding the Seven Years' War, specifically focusing on the fractured relationship between British colonial governors and their assemblies. Figures like Governor Dinwiddie and Governor Shirley struggled to secure funding and unity against French encroachment, highlighting the parochial interests of colonies like Pennsylvania and New York. The text details the diplomatic failures with indigenous tribes at the Albany Congress and the subsequent military disasters, most notably General Braddock's defeat at the Monongahela. This loss shifted the British strategy toward aggressive northern campaigns, culminating in the capture of Fort Beauséjour. The account concludes with the controversial forced deportation of the Acadians, a measure driven by fears of insurrection and the persistent influence of French agents. Through these events, the source illustrates the transition from provincial discord to a more unified, yet brutal, British imperial policy.
