Question

I NEED TO KNOW SOOOOO I CAN STUDY! ANSWER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

It was a proclamation declared by the British Crown at the end of the French and Indian War in North America, mainly intended to conciliate the Indians by checking the encroachment of white settlers on their lands. After Indian grievances had resulted in the start of Pontiac's War (1763-64), British authorities determined to subdue intercolonial rivalries and abuses by dealing with Indian problems as a whole. To this end, the proclamation organized new British territories in America--the provinces of Quebec, East and West Florida, and Grenada (in the Windward Islands)--and a vast British-administered Indian reservation west of the Appalachians, from south of Hudson Bay to north of the Floridas. It forbade all white settlement on Indian territory, ordered those settlers already there to withdraw, and strictly limited future settlement. For the first time in the history of European colonization in the New World, the proclamation formalized the concept of Indian land titles, prohibiting issuance of patents to any lands claimed by a tribe unless the Indian title had first been extinguished by purchase or treaty.

Although not intended to alter western boundaries, the proclamation was nevertheless offensive to the colonies as undue interference in their affairs. Treaties following Pontiac's War drew a more acceptable line of settlement and the balance of territory north of the Ohio River was added to Quebec in 1774. The proclamation failed to stem the westward movement of pioneers, whose disregard of its provisions evoked decades of continued Indian warfare throughout the area.

Answer 2

Basically the Proclamation of 1763 was a squasher of the victory of the French and Indian War in which the British forbade any colonial expansion into the frontier.The British were trying to ensure the Indians that they did not have any designs on the land in which they lived. The colonials for their part felt they were going to be hemmed in along the Atlantic coast and kill any efforts to feel any enjoyment from a British victory.

Answer 3

The Royal Proclamation of 1763 was issued October 7, 1763 by King George III following Great Britain's acquisition of French territory in North America after the end of the French and Indian War/Seven Years' War. The purpose of the proclamation was to organize Britain's vast new North American empire, and to stabilize relations with North American Indians through regulation of trade, settlement, and land purchases on the western frontier.
