      Joseph Coulon fought Washington before and then surrended to him then he died and that started the seven years war. This all started because George was sent to tell the french to get out of Canada(as we know today) and Joseph said no then George acted apuon it and wanted to use affirmitive action againist the french. This is how the hundred years war started or French Indian war.
