The Proclamation of 1763
Proclamation. Declaration. Whats the difference? Oh... there is a difference? Sorry... anyways, at the end of the French and Indian War, lots and lots of opportunities opened for colonists. (To hunt more of us rabbits, thats for sure.) Anyways, there was this theory that the proclamation was to keep British settlers and their fish 'n chips on the east coast. In fact, it was sorta true. The Proclamation made it so those Western territories were off-limits to those marrow-eating settlers, including that rich Ohio Valley, and all the land from Ohio to the Mississippi river. Sad.
:(
Well, on the bright side they got four new colonies, including East and West Florida. (Yay! Well, bunnies like sun too!) There was also Quebec, which was already settled, and the off continent Grenada. (There's a street near my burrow named Grenada, and I almost got run over there when it snowed, 'cause there's a really big hill and... uh, back to the topic.)
Anyways, the Indians, or Native Americans, as it is politicly correct, were now under protection of the crown. Actually, the Proclamation was mainly based around Natives. (On a side note: the king must've had HUGE crown )
Okay, so the founding father's would've been all:
George: WHAT?! Ye must let thou explorith the landith!
Um.... maybe not. But, something like that. Oh, by the way, I ban rabbit stew to be talked about, read about or... smelled about while reading this. Don't even think about it.
