Did the Indians and French settlers ever have wars soley against eachother in North America?
The French battled the Iroquois, Mohawk, and Hurons along the St. Lawrence and its tributaries for many years. The settlers gained the upperhand through the spread of disease and the establishment of trading posts and missions, leading to proxy wars between the tribes. These featured the French fighting alongside natives against other native tribes fighting alongside the British. The natives shifted allegiance amongst themselves and with the British and French, depending on the conflict.
