To understand the relationship between the Seven Years War and the French and Indian War, it's important to note that the French and Indian War was actually a part of the larger conflict known as the Seven Years' War.

The French and Indian War was primarily fought in North America between 1754 and 1763, with the British colonies in North America (supported by Great Britain) pitted against the French and their Native American allies. It was named the French and Indian War because the Native American tribes played a significant role in the conflict, often aligning themselves with either the British or the French.

Meanwhile, the Seven Years' War, which took place from 1756 to 1763, was a global conflict involving major European powers. It was fought between two coalitions of countries - one led by Great Britain and the other by France. The war had many theaters, including not only North America (where the French and Indian War was occurring), but also Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean. So, in essence, the French and Indian War was just one component of the larger Seven Years' War.

While the French and Indian War ended in 1763 with the signing of the Treaty of Paris, where France ceded its North American territories to Great Britain, the Seven Years' War as a whole officially ended with the Treaty of Hubertusburg in 1763. The Seven Years' War had a significant impact on the balance of power in Europe and North America, shaping the colonial and imperial ambitions of the major powers involved.

To summarize, the French and Indian War was a localized conflict within the larger Seven Years' War. It was fought primarily in North America, while the Seven Years' War encompassed multiple continents and involved various European powers. The outcome of the French and Indian War directly influenced the eventual outcome of the Seven Years' War.
