After the end of the French and Indian War, the changes in Florida included:

  • Slavery was permitted in Florida to entice Southerners to settle there.
  • Britain gained control of the territory from Spain.

These statements accurately reflect the historical changes in Florida as a result of the Treaty of Paris (1763), which ceded Florida to Britain. The other statements regarding the division of territory and the rate of development of West Florida are not accurate in the context of the post-war changes.
