The correct answer is C. The Ohio River Valley was an important area during the French and Indian War because it was coveted by the French and British for its good farmland and control of rivers.

Explanation:

In the mid-18th century, France and Great Britain placed their interests on the rich and unspoiled Ohio River valley. Immediately the French began to build various forts along the perimeter of this territory and the British responded with various diplomatic missions, trying to get the French to withdraw from the valley. Another disputed territory was Acadia. The latter was ceded from France to Great Britain at the end of the Austrian Succession War, after which the British immediately began to settle new settlers and build new settlements. For their part, the French built forts along the border, inciting Indians to make raids against opposing colonies.

In 1754 the French and the Indians began to collaborate to destroy the British settlements, which responded with weapons giving way to hostilities. No great battles took place in Acadia, but only raids and skirmishes, while in the Ohio River Valley, Colonel George Washington was commissioned by the governor of Virginia to confront enemy detachments.
