The correct answer is: King George III put limits on the colonies’ trade with other countries.

This policy, among others, contributed to growing tensions between the American colonies and the British government, ultimately leading to the American Revolution. The restrictions on trade were part of a series of acts and regulations, including the Navigation Acts, that were seen as an infringement on the economic freedom of the colonies.
