Talk:Wars for American Territory

Shouldn't the list include Castile and Russia? --Sikulu 07:19, 4 May 2006 (PDT)

What of the 1828 War? While it wasn't related to the wars of Europe, it was a war between colonial powers... BoArthur 08:02, 4 May 2006 (PDT)

I added Castile and Russia, although the list did not claim to be complete. To me, the 1828 War is a different feel from the Wars for American Territory because it was essentially fought by nations, rather than colonies and on a continent far more settled, with the native tribes' political positions essentially settled rather than up for grabs. Although some historians might disagree. You're welcome to add that viewpoint if you think it is merited. Zahir 08:17, 4 May 2006 (PDT)

Cross-post. :) And I have no objections...this is more or less résumé and doesn't conflict with QSS as far as I can tell. BoArthur 09:32, 16 November 2006 (PST)

The article seem to imply that the french's highlands became british much earlier then it was established they did (following the french revolution). --Marc Pasquin 11:19, 27 May 2007 (PDT)

I don't quite see it that way. To me, the article implies that the interplay of the different colonizing efforts created--among other things--the colony of Ontario. But that this is first and foremost a theory proposed by some historians while rejected by others. Could you elaborate, and I'll edit the article to clarify? Zahir 17:55, 27 May 2007 (PDT)

Better now? Zahir 08:21, 29 May 2007 (PDT)

It state that the creation of Ontario created a wedge between Louisiana and New Francy, this only happened after the creation of the NAL and the annexion of the Highlands. --Marc Pasquin 08:50, 28 May 2007 (PDT)
