Historie

Pontiac's War, also referred to as Pontiac's Conspiracy or Pontiac's Rebellion, was a significant conflict that emerged in the aftermath of the French and Indian War (1754–1763). In 1763, a coalition of Native American tribes, disillusioned with the increasing British presence and control in the Great Lakes region, united under the leadership of the Odawa chieftain Pontiac. These Native American forces launched an offensive aimed at driving British soldiers and settlers from the region.

The war began in May 1763 when Native American warriors, fearful of British General Jeffrey Amherst’s harsh policies, launched a series of attacks on British forts and settlements. These assaults led to the destruction of eight forts, the death or capture of hundreds of colonists, and the forced evacuation of many others. The intensity of the conflict shocked the British, as the attacks, though widespread, were coordinated across many tribes, reflecting a united front among the Indigenous people. Despite their efforts, the Native Americans were unable to expel the British from the region. The war finally began to subside in 1764 after British military actions prompted peace talks, which continued into 1766.
