Answer 1

"After the French and Indian War, Britain began to enforce taxes on the colonies to help pay for the expensive war. Additionally, Britain needed to take steps to keep the peace with the Native Americans, so king George III issued the Royal Proclamation of 1763, which prevented colonists from settling west of the Appalachian Mountains. These policies were unpopular with the colonists and those grievances would lead to the American Revolution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The taxes that the British enforced on the colonies to help pay for the expensive war, such as the Sugar and Stamp Acts, were not welcome among the colonies since they believed they were unfair and that they should not be taxed without their consent (origins of the famous slogan No taxation without representation!). When King George III issued the Royal Proclamation of 1763 to make peace with the Natives, his main goal was actually to prevent trade between them and the colonists (only British licensed traders could deal with them). This way, they would benefit from them and the colonies as well. The colonies reacted to this Proclamation and the unfair system of taxation by organizing boycotts and riots, and these grievances would later lead to their Revolution and Declaration of Independence.

Grievances: causes for complaint.
