9. Proclamation of 1763
Britain gained a vast territory after the French and Indian War
The Proclamation of 1763 prohibited colonists to move west of the Appalachian Mountains
Britain did this to protect its citizens from Native American attacks
Also the Proclamation kept settlers near the coast where there would be more trade of British goods
The Proclamation also allowed Britain to control the fur trade on the frontier

10. Britain’s Interests
Britain planned on stationing 10,000 troops in the colonies to protect these interests (Quartering Act)
Britain needed new revenue (incoming money) to pay troop expenses
Also the French and Indian War left Britain with a huge debt
The king and Parliament believed the colonists should pay for part of the cost
New taxes on the colonies were introduced along with enforcing existing taxes more strictly

11. Britain’s Trade Law 1763- Britain decided to act against smuggling
Smuggling lost Britain revenue
American juries often found smugglers innocent
The prime minister of Britain (George Grenville) convinced Parliament to pass a law allowing smugglers to have a trial by British officers
1767- Parliament authorized writs of assistance
Allowed customs officials to enter any location to search for smuggled goods

12. The Sugar Act (1764) Lowered the tax on imported molasses

The act also let officers seize goods from smugglers without going to court
