Answer 1

The correct provision in the Treaty of Paris 1763 is: D: all French lands east of the Mississippi and in Canada were to be given to England.

The treaty marked the end of the French and Indian War (Seven Years' War) and resulted in significant territorial changes in North America, with Britain gaining control over Canada and all territories east of the Mississippi River, while Spain received Louisiana (west of the Mississippi River) as compensation for its loss of Florida to Britain.
