The Anishinabe Conquest of Cuba (1762)
Near the end of the 1752-1763 war (it is better known as the French and Indian War) the Anishinabek under Boindiac's
leadership, initiated a military campaign against Spanish held Florida to attempt to force the Spanish out. Since
French Canada had no choice but to request for English military aid in their war against the Anishinabe Confederations
(the Three Fires Confederation and the Wabanaki Confederation), it led to a decrease in the fighting between the Indians
and the whites. With the decrease in fighting Boindiac launched the military campaign to bring Florida under Anishinabe
control, which was carried out successfully. In fact, by late 1762 Florida was entirely under Anishinabe control. Florida
was crusial to Anishinabe ogimak who needed to control Florida if they wanted to reach the island prophesy claimed
was to be their goal.
After bringing Florida under their control, Anishinabe ogimak under Boindiac's leadership, launched a military campaign
against Spanish held Cuba. That occurred soon after Florida was conquered in 1762. In fact, the first battles of the
Anishinabe military campaign against Spanish held Cuba, occurred shortly after Florida was brought under Anishinabe
control in 1762 and possibly led to a complete Anishinabe victory over the Spanish of Cuba in that same year. Soon after
Cuba was brought under Anishinabe control, a massive migration of Anishinabek and other Native American Tribes living
in what is now the eastern United States, commenced to Cuba. That migration to Cuba, then the Bahamas, then to Mexico,
then to Hispaniola, then to South America lasted for several decades. In fact, the migration to the Caribbean, Mexico
and South America was still going on during the War of 1812. The English Empire did attempt to stop the massive migration
to Cuba and other islands, but Boindiac launched a military campaign against the English living in North America in which
the English were stopped from interupting the massive migration.
