Question 6 • CCPS Georgia Studies 8 (45.00900) YL IC

What territory was gained by Britain following the French and Indian War? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
the province of Quebec
B
Florida
C
territory west of the Mississippi River
D
territory east of the Mississippi River
E
the Thirteen Colonies

Explanation

The 1763 Treaty of Paris gave Britain French Canada, including Quebec, and French territory east of the Mississippi River. Britain also received Florida from Spain as part of the peace settlement. Territory west of the Mississippi went to Spain, while the Thirteen Colonies were already British, so they were not newly gained.
