England: 20,000
Spain: 3,000
Total Losses: 991,500 [K=1/4-1/3: 250-330,000]
Hopes this helps. It doesn't include Native Americans or casualties in India.

Answer 2

The problem here is that you have not defined if you are referring to the entire "Seven Years War" or part of it. This war includes Europe, the Pomeranian War, and also colonial North America, French and Indian War.

If you want the French and Indian War alone, your chance of finding casualty numbers is slim, especially those involving the North American Indians. I have some links below for both the American part of the War and the entire war. You may possibly get casualty figures from looking up individual battles at the links provided below.

You should also check with your local library reference librarian as she/he will show you how to find the information. I don't believe you will learn a thing unless you actually do the research and find your own source rather than have the information handed to you. Besides, that's cheating.
