What north America land claims were the french forced to give up in the treaty of Paris?
Okay I am also from Manhattan NY and that locale is not the place....the correct answer to your question is the Louisiana Purchase....The land purchased contained all of present-day Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Minnesota south of Mississippi River, much of North Dakota, nearly all of South Dakota, northeastern New Mexico, northern Texas, the portions of Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado east of the Continental Divide, and Louisiana on both sides of the Mississippi River, including the city of New Orleans. Hope this helps ya!
Is it possible that either France or Great Britain still own parts of land in the United States or Canada going back to the colonial days?
No, they do not. France gave up ALL its claims in Canada in the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The United Kingdom gave up all property rights in Canada when it created the Dominion of Canada in 1867, although it did agree to maintain the Royal Naval bases for a timeThe French surrendered any and all control including possessions of private individuals and companies in Canada, but the English had already mandated to retain land ownership as it existed in Quebec. The British later forced the Hudson’s Bay Company to sell their massive land holdings to the Goverment of Canada.
Following the Treaty of Paris in 1763, what event left the vast interior of the continent open for Americans to colonize?
Louisiana purchase?Or would they have taken the land anyway.
Why did the French help the Americans in Revolutionary war?
Simply, revenge. Both England (after 1707, Britain) and France were rising powers in the 17th century, and by century's end their interests began to clash around the world, leading to a series of wars. These wars often had underlying premises, but very quickly the Anglo-French rivalry asserted itself and became the main focus of these wars: James II's attempts to reclaim his crown in 1690-97, the War of the Spanish Succession (1702-1714), the War of the Austrian Succession (1740-48), etc. This all culminated in the Seven Years War (1756-1763), which some historians consider the first truly world war, which pitted Britain and its allies (Prussia, Portugal, etc.) against France and its allies (Austria, Russia, etc.). On most (though not all) fronts, Britain and its allies won spectacularly, especially resulting in the British conquest of French North America (i.e., Canada). This is why when relations soured between Britain and its British colonies in North America after 1765, France remained neutral but was quite pleased. It did not enter the war officially until the American rebels managed to defeat a British army at Saratoga, NY in 1777, proving that they could win some battles. France declared war against Britain and sent money, supplies and soldiers to America to aid the Americans - but France always feared that the Americans would give up early and negotiate an end to the war with London, leaving France on its own to fight Britain. This was a constant source of tension between Paris and the Americans during the war, forcing Washington to constantly reassure the French that they would never abandon their cause, though some Americans like Ben Franklin used these French fears to extract more loans from Paris. Military victory came with combined Franco-American forces capturing Cornwallis' army at Yorktown, VA in 1781, but negotiations dragged on for two more years between the allies and Britain in part because Spain had also joined the war on the French side - had even sent an army from Florida led by General Galvez, after whom Galveston, TX is named, across the southern states and he was preparing to attack British-ruled Jamaica when the war ended in 1783 - but Spain had failed to capture Gibraltar back from the British, and wanted to continue the war. Finally, in 1783, the French secretly advised the Americans to do exactly what the French had feared earlier; make a separate peace with Britain to end the war.
