The Royal Proclamation of 1763 was issued to halt the colonists from moving westward while, they were expanding the fur trade. In affect it was designed to calm Native Indians.

Why did the British pass it?
King George III wanted to pacify (calm)  native americans who sided him during the Seven Years' War.

How did the colonists reach?

They were upset that Britain had made the area available for settlement a small amount. They were also angry because the law did not let them settle in the Ohio River Valley where there was fertile soil for farming that wasn't being used. Many colonists had already bought land west of the Appalachians and weren't able to move. Most colonists did not respect the Native Americans and did not want to preserve their land. The colonists broke the law and moved across the Appalachians.]]> 2017-01-17 19:34:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sdietze/rcxq6jjua9gn/wish/147660261 sdietze https://padlet.com/sdietze/rcxq6jjua9gn/wish/147930752 Explain the act:

British did not have enough money to pay back the debt, so they taxed the colonists.
How did the colonists react?
The stamp act angered the colonists because they thought only their own assemblies could tax them.
To protest the stamp act, samuel adams started the sons of liberty
