Description: A map of eastern colonial North America showing the struggle for supremacy between England, France, and Spain in the region, from the King William's War (1689–1692) to Queen Anne's War (1702–1713), a period also known as the Intercolonial Wars or French and Indian Wars (not to be confused with the French and Indian War of 1754–1763). This map shows the settlements and outposts attacked with the dates of attack given in parentheses. The principal areas of conflict were the English Hudson Bay Company claims in the north, the fishing grounds of Newfoundland and Nova Scotia, the frontier lands in Acadia, St. Lawrence, Maine, and Hudson River Valley, and in the south, the Carolinas and Spanish Florida.
