To determine which answer choice the map most directly depicts, it would be helpful to know more about the specific features of the map in question, such as the boundaries it shows, any text or legends included, and the historical context it represents.

However, based on general historical knowledge regarding British colonial policies, if the map illustrates certain boundaries or territories established by the British government, it is likely related to:

- **Choice A**: “remove indigenous nations from North America” could refer to land allocation, reservations, or policies aimed at displacing indigenous peoples.

- **Choice B**: “limit the westward expansion of British colonial settlement” could indicate policies like the Proclamation Line of 1763, which sought to limit colonial expansion into indigenous territories.

- **Choice C**: “improve trade relationships with the colonists” is less likely unless the map shows trade routes or economic systems.

- **Choice D**: “restrict the eastward expansion of indigenous people” generally does not align with historical patterns, as most British policies aimed at confining colonists rather than restricting indigenous movements.

Given this framework, the most directly relevant choices would seem to be **A** or **B**, with **B** being a strong candidate if the map aligns with the Proclamation Line of 1763, which was established after the French and Indian War to prevent further British colonial expansion into territories inhabited by indigenous nations.

If the map specifically showcases the Proclamation Line or boundaries that prevented colonial westward expansion, **Choice B** would be most accurate. Therefore, without knowing the details of the map, I would suggest that **Choice B** ("limit the westward expansion of British colonial settlement") is likely the best answer.
