The best answer is:
(Choice B) Tensions increased between Britain and the American colonies over territorial expansion.
The Proclamation of 1763 established a boundary along the Appalachian Mountains, which restricted colonial expansion westward into indigenous territories. Many American colonists were frustrated by this limitation, as they had hoped to expand their settlements into the newly acquired lands after the French and Indian War. This restriction contributed to growing tensions between the colonies and Britain.
