Video Description
The Seven Years’ War was the culmination of a long series of dynastic struggles and colonial rivalries. Great Britain, France, Austria, Prussia, and Russia each pursued specific military objectives, from controlling sea routes and expanding colonial holdings to retaining or reclaiming European territories. This turned large parts of Europe and surrounding regions into a vast battleground. In this video, we show how each country saw its chance in the conflict: Prussia sought to solidify its status as a rising power, Austria aimed to recover Silesia, while Britain and France battled over global sea lanes and colonial possessions. We’ll explore how these clashing ambitions sparked a massive war whose outcome would shape the world’s geopolitical map for years to come.
