The Anglo-Cherokee War (1759-1763) was a conflict between British forces in North America and the Cherokee Indians during the French and Indian War. The British and the Cherokee were formally allies at the start of the war, but each party repeatedly suspected the other of betrayal. The Cherokee declared open war against the British in 1759, fighting independently rather than as allies of France.
