Unit 3 Brief Summary This summary is not meant to replace your reading, and it by no means covers every significant fact from the era… but it will provide a simple overview/review of the era with some of the major terms in bold as a reminder of those items most likely to show up on the exam. Consider it an introduction to the era review. The British let the colonists have a great deal of economic and political independence under a policy called Salutary Neglect. This practice ended after the French and Indian War which resulted from the British challenging France for possession of North America, of 1754-1763. The French and Indian War was one of most important events of the 18th century which decisively shaped American history, hastening independence and stirring a spirit of revenge among the French which further hastened the break with England. Therefore, the American Revolution essentially began in 1763 even though the shot heard round the world didn’t occur until 1775.
