- King Williams War was the first in a series of
wars between France and England for supremacy in
North America. The major goal, other than
prestige, was the control of the fur trade. All
of these struggles had European counterparts that
were often of greater significance than the
American events. - King William III of England, the new monarch
imported from the Netherlands at the time of the
Glorious revolution in 1688-89 allied himself
with the League of Augsburg (certain German
states, Spain and Sweden) to oppose the French
expansion. The Austrians and the Dutch also
joined the fray against Louis XIV in the European
phase of the conflict. - Peace was temporarily established in the Treaty
of Ryswick in 1697.

34Queen Annes War
- In 1702, Europe was again convulsed in war, this
time over the issue of succession to the Spanish
throne. In North America, the fighting involved
not only the British and French in the north, but
also the British against the Spanish in the
south. - The Treaty of Utrecht in 1713 ended the European
and North American conflicts. The British
received Acadia (renamed Nova Scotia),
Newfoundland and fur trading posts in the Hudson
Bay area. France managed to retain several
islands in the Saint Lawrence River and Cape
Breton Island at the northeastern end of Nova
Scotia.
