== Road to War ==
=== War of the Austrian Succession ===
The War of the Austrian Succession started in 1740 due to a dispute over whether or not Austria was to have a queen or king after their monarch died. After fighting in Central Europe, Italy, and the Austrian Netherlands, The Austrian-British alliance would sign a peace agreement with the French-Prussian alliance, ending the war and giving Silesia to Prussia.
=== French and Indian War ===
In 1754, small conflict broke out in North America between French and British colonies after British general George Washington attacked French troops in the Ohio Valley. This would escalate into the French and Indian War, later fanning out into the larger Seven Years' War in Europe due to the Diplomatic Revolution.
=== Diplomatic Revolution ===
The Diplomatic Revolution refers to the time period where European powers such as the Kingdom of France maintained peace after the War of the Austrian Succession by creating diplomatic relations. In 1756, Prussia and Britain signed the Anglo-Prussian Alliance. France and Austria signed the Treaty of Versailles in 1756... and then again in 1757 due to bad communication. However, Prussia would declare war on Saxony in 1756, which would escalate into the Seven Years' War.
