Question

"DANFORTH, conciliatory: You misunderstand, sir; I cannot pardon these when twelve are already hanged for the same crime. It is not just." (Act 4, p. 119).

a) True
b) False

Answer 1

The Conciliatory Proposition did not give in to most demands of the American colonists (false), the Proclamation of 1763 was partly a response to Pontiac's War (true), and the creation of the Dominion of New England was not to punish Massachusetts Bay for failing to convert Indian tribes (false).

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement regarding the Conciliatory Proposition suggests that the mother country acquiesced to most of the American colonists' demands. This is false; while the proposition aimed to address some concerns, it was not an outright acceptance of all the demands.

Regarding the Proclamation of 1763, it is true that it was enacted partly in response to Pontiac's War as a measure to stabilize relations with Native Americans and prevent further conflicts. As for the Dominion of New England, it is false that it was created to punish Massachusetts Bay for failing to convert local Indian tribes; it was mainly established to tighten administrative control of several colonies and enforce navigation laws.
