King George III decided to make the area off limits to colonists that wanted to settle east of the Appalachian Mountains. The Proclamation of 1763 angered colonists who wanted to settle in the Ohio River Valley. The colonists felt it unfair since they had just fought in the French and Indian War that brought that land to Britain.
