How did the French and Indian war contributed to the beginning of the American Revolution?
Hi, Louis XVI was a fervent supporter of the American War of Independence and decided to help pro-independence fighters by sending them a tremendous amount of resources. He decided to build a strong, efficient navy, capable of rivaling the English maritime arsenal. He sent his forces to America where the war of independence was raging. This act was a key point in the independentist’s naval victory. But this gesture eventually caused the French Monarchy’s budget to dry up.
