The Seven Years War is also known as the French and Indian War. In this episode, host John Green argues that this global war laid a lot of the ground work for the American Revolution. Also during this time, religious revival was sweeping the country, introducing new ideas about religion and how it should be practiced. The Great Awakening also aided in the start of the the American Revolution. Part of the "Crash Course U.S. History" series.
