The colony that had the most negative reaction to the Proclamation of 1763 was Virginia. The proclamation restricted colonial expansion westward beyond the Appalachian Mountains, which particularly angered Virginia landowners and settlers who were eager to expand into new territories. This restriction was seen as a violation of their rights and ambitions, leading to significant discontent in Virginia compared to reactions in other colonies.
