-launched an attack on Acadia in 1704 and also in 1705 -killed prisoners, breached dikes, stole altar pieces, burnt farmhouses to the ground In the conflict everyone that lived in Acadia was involved, along with Colonel Benjamin Church, and many French people. This conflict started because the French had launched attacks against New England and it could have been a way of getting revenge. The revenge was starting a war and ending it with a treaty, but the treaty would make them give up certain things. In one way it could have been a bad thing and in another way it might have been a good thing. The dates of the conflict from start to finish were 1702-1713. The war ended with the signing of the Treaty of Utrecht. In 30 years filled with warless peace Acadia and d New France flourished from existence. The Key names involved were Colonel Benjamin Church, and also the Acadians(people that were currently living in Acadia at that time).The key battles were the start and end of Spanish succession. The dates were 1702-1713. It started the treaty of Utrecht. Acadia was controlled by British people. The army helped control them.The army wanted the land for Britain so the great Acadian Deportation was started. The great Acadian deportation was where the Acadians got taken down to the United States far away from their home so they would have to walk a long way to return home. Britain wanted to have all of Acadia. Acadia was controlled by the French which means the Acadians were French and came from a French background. the Acadians didn't want to lose their land and stay in their new home that they were re-located to so they started a war to get their home back. After the war was finished, the Treaty of Utrecht was signed by both British and French. Both sides won some stuff and both sides ended up losing some stuff. If Britain wouldn't have taken away the Acadian’s right to their land the war wouldn't have started. So in most ways this war/conflict could have been avoided but it wasn't so the consequences of the war was losing what they wanted in the first place which was land and the French and British were always fighting about getting more land and getting more control but this time both sides lost and that was fair. They still won something and got stuck in Canadian history. Go to the website below to learn more. [] Acadia was asked to compromise their Roman Catholic culture. They decided to say no to it.
