The Royal Proclamation of 1763
was written to prove to the Indians that they had the King’s
protection. The Proclamation, signed by King George III, who
was the ruler of Great Britain, required Englishmen to get off
Indian Territory. It also included a list of things that were
not allowed. The Royal Proclamation was written to calm the fears of the Indians who thought the
colonists were going to push them off their land. This Royal
Proclamation was made in 1763 after the French and Indian War.
As a result of this proclamation, the Indians got their land
back, and the colonists were forced to move back east of the
Appalachian Mountains. |
