King William's War (1689–97) the first in what can be thought of as the
French and Indian Wars (1754–63). Remotely tied to the War of the
Grand Alliance (1689–97), it pitted French Canadians and their Indian allies against New England colonists and their Indian allies in long-term warfare throughout lower Canada and New England. The British took
Port Royal in Nova Scotia and the French carried out successful attacks in New York, New Hampshire, and Maine. The Peace of Ryswick ended the war, although hostilities broke out soon after. See also
King George's War.
