Following the French and Indian War (Seven Years War in Europe), France no longer presented a threat to the westward migration of American colonists. With the British expected to protect the colonists from the Indians, many wanted to move west to acquire land, seek adventure, and establish farms and towns and businesses. The main reason was to improve the lot of the colonist and his family.
