French And Indian War

I've heard alot from other farmers that the indians are attacking farms. we won the Battle in Quebec by using a not highly garded pass to sneak in. we gained land from France in the treaty of paris. Pontiacs war was one of the last native american attempts to stop colonist from migrating West. The proclamation of 1763 set the appalations as the bondry for the colonies. I dont realy care though, becouse I already have Plent of land.

Conflicts arise

When two powerful nations like the French and British there will be fighting. Both want to be the most powerful nation and thats why they fight. The rivialy is realy starting to afect me becouse, every time someone comes to the farm i have to be ready to go join the militia. Georgewashington is a hero in my books. I agree that we need one government becouse, of the french threat. I believe there will be a war soon.

MY CULTURE

I am a Quaker, I moved from pennslvania for large tracks of land here in New Jersey. England controlles our government, but i am a menber of the lower house. I am an adult white male who does own land. I was taught to read and write from my mother, the enlightenment is when eveybody got all excited about science. the glorious revolution is important becouse we know have more governmental controll. the navigation acts dont raly affect me but alot of people dont like them.
