翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Capture of Senegal ： ウィキペディア英語版 Capture of Senegal The Capture of Senegal took place in 1758 when a British military expedition landed and captured the French settlement of Saint-Louis, Senegal during the Seven Years' War. ==Background== The plan was devised by an American merchant Thomas Cumming who had previously visited West Africa, and extensively considered the possibilities for a British attack.〔Brown p.165〕 The plan was built around Britain's growing dominance on the Oceans which had dramatically reduced French sea power. A British naval force under Captain Henry Marsh would sail from England and head for the coast of West Africa, where it would land an amphibious force at the Senegal River. They would then capture the French fort at Saint-Louis. Cumming planned to raise support from local African forces, who would rendezvous with the British and attack the French.〔Anderson p.306〕 France's settlements were economically valuable because of commerce and because they served as centres for slave-trading. They also had a strategic value as they were situated on the West African coast which with a well-sited naval base could dominate the Eastern Atlantic and control the sea lanes between Europe and Asia which added to the appeal of Britain taking control of them. Strong lobbying had also come from the Royal African Company. Such expeditions were part of Southern Secretary William Pitt's strategy to attack France's colonies while most of France's resources and military efforts were tied up in the ongoing war in Germany against Prussia and Hanover.〔Brown p.174〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Capture of Senegal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
