The main reason for the French and Indian was was C, France and Britain disagreed over land claims and the fur trade in North America. While the French and Indians hunted and trapped for the fur trade, the British/colonist settled and farmed the land which destroyed and disrupted hunting grounds. This of course brought the dispute.
