1688-1697 King William's War was over Montreal and Quebec and was in the 1690’s and had two attacks using the American and British forces and both were unsuccessful
Louisbourg was built and the british were scared about it; Meanwhile the French were spreading their garrisons apart vulnerable for attack and with all of these events sparked the “ War of the Austrian Succession”.
French launched an attack on Canso; Captured a lot of soldiers, and they did it to guard supplies, and attack a staging point for the british on Louisburg; Also the British and Americans attacked Louisburg.
Due to foul weather and not good soldiers the fleet of ships sent to take Louisburg landed with small problems and French were beaten back, and they surrendered by walking out of the citadel , but they got it back from towns in Belgium, and ended the war.
in 1759 Louisburg got taken forever and was a beginning point for the seven years war(aka the French and Indian war), and was also the final showdown for the French and British
