This map shows the Proclamation Line of 1763, which was created after the end of the French and Indian War. Why were colonists offended by the Proclamation Line?

As a result of the Proclamation of 1763, colonists were not legally allowed to settle to the west of the line. The British insisted this was for the safety of the colonists, but the colonists saw through this. It was mainly to keep colonists from being too far out British control.

Which statement describes the role of Native Americans in the French and Indian War (1754-1763)?

During the French and Indian War- also known as the Seven Years War- some Native American tribes fought with the French, while some fought with the British.

The British made two attempts to capture the fort from the French during the French and Indian War.
