Why were the forks so important in the french and Indian war?
I was thinking that the french wanted to control the American-Indian trade in the Ohio River Valley.
Wanting to limit British influence along their frontier, the French built a string of forts from Lake Erie towards the forks of the Ohio (present-day Pittsburgh). Because rivers were so important to transportation, the forks of the Ohio was a strategically important location, one that both nations wanted to control.
