Brittany Snyder Martha Smith Sarah Segovia 1. The Federal Land Policy and Management Act were roots of the Sagebrush Rebellion. These laws stated that public land must be kept in perpetual trust by the federal government. The significance of this was that these acts destroyed any last hope that the Westerners had of public lands being turned over to local governments. Another example of disapproval in the Sagebrush Rebellion was in Idaho, where a business assembly fought the expansion of the Snake River Birds of Prey national Conservation Area.

Alondra Guzman Pd.2/AP US History 9.28.12 The American & British Views The French and Indian War, was a prerevolutionary extension of the Seven Years War that seized Europe from 1756 until 1763. It was known as the bloodiest American war in the 18th century and took more lives than the American Revolution. The war was the consequence of an imperial struggle, wealth and the clash between the French and English over the colonial territory. This war was seen as the product of the center of rivalry between the British and the French colonists. The American and the British had very distinct views regarding the results on the French and Indian war.
