Explanation:

1- The Battle of Quebec was a crucial battle in the French and Indian War. The confrontation, which began on September 12, 1759, was fought between the British army and the French army on a plateau just opposite the walls of Quebec City. The battle faced less than 10,000 troops between the two sides, but it turned out to be a decisive moment in the conflict between France and Great Britain to elucidate the fate of New France, and which had a decisive influence on the later creation of Canada.

The battle, less than an hour long, was the culmination of a three-month siege by the British. The British commander, General James Wolfe, successfully broke the advance column of the French troops and the militiamen of New France under Louis-Joseph de Montcalm. Both generals were mortally wounded during the confrontation; Wolfe died on the battlefield, while Montcalm died the next morning. As a result, the French armies in Canada and the rest of North America found themselves under increasing pressure from British forces. After four years, almost all French possessions in eastern North America were ceded to Great Britain.

2- In 1763, France decided to compensate its ally Spain for the services it provided against the common English enemy. Thus, after the temporary loss of Havana and Manila at the hands of the English, France ceded the territory of Louisiana, including New Orleans, to Spain in secret clause to the Treaty of Paris.

3- The Seven Years' War (and by extension, the French and Indian War) ended in 1763. On February 10, the Treaty of Paris was signed by Duke Choiseul, the Marquis of Grimaldi and the Duke of Bedford.

4- William Pitt was a British statesman who made himself famous as War Minister of Britain during the Seven Years' War.

5- In the spring of 1756, General Montcalm was appointed field marshal for operations in New France, succeeding in his first battles against the British, and participated in the Battle of Fort Carillon. He led the French forces in the siege of Quebec City for three months, during which he was mortally wounded.
