Tensions Between British and First Nations Post-Fort Detroit and the Royal Proclamation of 1763

The relationship between the British and First Nations deteriorated significantly after the Fort Detroit incident, primarily due to the Royal Proclamation of 1763 issued by King George III. This proclamation restricted settlement and limited land purchases in North America, significantly affecting First Nations territories. The crown's monopoly on land transactions and trade licenses caused frustration among the First Nations, prompting them to feel alienated and discontented with British policies. This tension underscored the complexities of colonial relationships in North America.
