an economic effect of the french and indian war on american colonists was that
many colonists gained wealth from food and supplies sold to the british army.
many farmers lost money when the military raided their crop stores.
many colonists gained greater wealth as the british lowered taxes.
many farmers lost money as british troops drove them from their homes.
During the French and Indian War, the British army had significant demand for food and supplies in the colonies. Many colonists capitalized on this demand by selling goods to the British military, which allowed them to accumulate wealth. British taxes were raised (not lowered) after the war to pay off war debts, and the other options about crop raids or displacement of farmers were not major widespread economic effects of the conflict on colonists.
