Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After the French and Indian War ended, the British government issued the Proclamation of 1763, on October 7, 1763, which forbade colonists from settling the land west of the Appalachian Divide. ... New settlements further inland would cost the government a lot of money in roads, protection, security and local governments.

British leaders feared that more fighting would take place on the frontier if colonists kept moving onto American Indian lands. This law banned British settlement west of the Appalachian Mountains.
