Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pontiac's Rebellion was a conflict that occurred from 1763 to 1766, in which various Native American tribes, led by Chief Pontiac, united to fight against English intrusion of Indian lands in the Northwest. The rebellion was sparked by the dissatisfaction of Indian tribes with the British policies that followed the French and Indian War, whereby the British attempted to control and limit trade between the Ohio River Valley and other colonies. While the rebellion ultimately failed, it demonstrated the ability of Native American tribes to coordinate and resist European colonialism.
