Which of the following best describes the role of william pitt during the french and indian war?

William Pitt was a British politician, Minister of War during the Seven Years' War, when he led his country to victory over France

He entered political life in 1735, as a member of the House of Commons. He defended the thesis that maritime power and colonial possessions would be more important to his country than European conquests, since colonies were the basis of the British trading system. He led, by his oratory skills, the "patriots" current against Sir Walpole's pacifism and contributed to the fall of his ministry in 1742, in addition to opposing the policy of King George II. The latter removed him by his appointment to executive positions in the administration, in which he acquired fame as an honest man.  

He returned to political life under the pressure of public opinion in the face of the first British defeats in the Seven Years' War against France (1756-1763). At first England was very weakened, however it was strengthened in 1757, when William Pitt and the Duke of Newcastle, in a combination of experience and enthusiasm, formed a ministry dominated by the former. In power, Pitt applied the tactic of facing France in its colonies and at sea, which led to British victory. British rule over Canada also dates from that time. The death of George II, in 1760, changed the political situation, since his successor, George III, decided to reign personally. Pitt left the government in 1761, when the king and Parliament rejected his advice to attack Spain. He strongly criticized the Treaty of Paris (1763), despite guaranteeing Britain the position of dominant power.
