Mercantilism was a economic system based on countries trying to sell their goods to other countries while trying to buy as little as possible from others.

They also seized French merchant ships. - Gabriel

They were mainly having a confusion over North American land claims, and that’s one of the reasons why some maps had disputed territories, mainly consisting of French allies and the British.

The Acadian Expulsion is something that happened between 1755 and 1763, when Acadians we removed from their homes in a rather violent way.

British Queen Anne, French King Louis XIV, and the other European leaders agreed to do this treaty without any conflicts happening between the powerful nations but serve as a victory for the British. -Sammy
