I. The competition among the British, French, and American Indians for economic and political advantage in North America culminated in the Seven years’ War (the French and Indian War), in which Britain defeated France and allied American Indians

You don't need to know all the people unless they are a term or if you see the name repeatedly. Think about what roles the following played: Native Americans, French, women, slaves, economy. Think about how different people/groups viewed democracy. What were the strengths and weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation? And really, why did we win the war?
