    Correct Answer
    A. King williams war
    Explanation
    King William's War was the first war in a series of colonial struggles between England and France. It was fought between 1689 and 1697 in North America, primarily in the areas of present-day New England and Canada. The war was sparked by conflicts over territorial claims and trade between the two colonial powers. The English colonists, supported by their Native American allies, sought to defend their territories from French expansion. The war ended with the signing of the Treaty of Ryswick, which restored the pre-war territorial boundaries but did not resolve the underlying conflicts between England and France.
