During the Seven Years' War, 640 Odawa, Ojibwe, and Potawatomi warriors ambushed a British column over twice their size at the Battle of the Monongahela. But when France surrendered Canada in 1763, the British assumed they owned the continent. As Redcoats garrisoned former French outposts, Ojibwe Chieftain Minavavana delivered an iconic, chilling warning: "Although you have conquered the French, you have not yet conquered us." #SevenYearsWar #FrenchAndIndianWar #NativeAmericanHistory #HistoryShorts #Ojibwe #BritishEmpire #ChiefPontiac
