Question

To protect the French who lived east of the Appalachians
To prevent costly conflict with Native Americans
To expand its empire east of the Appalachians
to increase trade with the Native Americans

Answer 1

The primary reason Britain passed the Proclamation of 1763 was to prevent costly conflict with Native Americans. This proclamation established a boundary (the Appalachian Mountains) beyond which colonial settlers were not allowed to venture, aiming to reduce tensions and disputes between settlers and Native American tribes in the newly acquired territories after the French and Indian War.
