Answer:
A. Tensions increased between Britain and the American colonies over territorial expansion.
Explanation:
The American colonists wanted to expand westward past the Appalachian Mountains and opposed the Proclamation of 1763.
The Proclamation of 1763 resulted in the increased tension between Britain and the American colonies over territorial expansion.
The Proclamation of 1763 was a royal decree that was issued by the British monarchy over the issue of territory between American colonies and the Native American lands. This decree signed by King George III stated the American territory as the Appalachian Mountains, meaning settlement beyond that is prohibited.
- This decree prohibited the American colonies from extending their territories beyond the Appalachian Mountains.
- This agreement was done by Britain to appease the Native Americans about other European colonizers' encroachment into Native American lands.
- This means that the proclamation created a boundary line that separates colonial lands and native American lands, thereby keeping in check the encroachment of native lands while 'expanding colonies'.
This led to an increased tension between the American colonies and Britain. Thus, the correct answer is option A.
