Why did the british government create the proclamation of 1763

The proclamation of 1763 was issued on October 7 by the King of England George III after Britain acquired the French territories in North America.

The proclamation was aimed at organizing the new British lands and establishing agreements with the native communities for the fur trade, the process of colonial expansion and the purchase of land. The idea was also to assimilate the French population.

The proclamation prohibited settlers from settling beyond a line drawn along the Appalachian Mountains, making it an important antecedent for First Nations. The proclamation was also aimed at reducing the fear that had been generated in the native communities of a massive arrival of whites in their lands.
