  • 1 King George's War

    Американское название войны за австрийское наследство, проходившей в Северной Америке в 1744-48, третья по счету война с французами и индейцами [ French and Indian wars]. В мае 1744 поселенцы-французы, узнав о войне в Европе, захватили английский королевский форт Аннаполис [ Annapolis, Fort Royal]. В свою очередь в 1745 английские отряды из Новой Англии [ New England] захватили французский форпост Луисбург. По договору, подписанному в Э-ля-Шапель [Treaty of Aix-la Chapelle] в 1748, был восстановлен довоенный статус-кво. В историю США эта война вошла под именем английского короля Георга II
