Answer:
a. Americans won their independence from the British..
Step-by-step explanation:
The Treaty of Paris 1763 was based on the settlement of conflict after the French - Indian war otherwise known as the Seven Years war. While the British gained many lands in mainland America from the French and Spanish, they were however plunged into great debt acquired during the war.
Consequently, in their attempt to pay for this debt, they imposed a series of taxes on the American colonies. The result of taxes imposition known as "taxation without representation" led to the war of independence or the American Civil War, in which the Americans eventually won their independence from the British.
