The Tactics Of British Rule Increased Between 1763 And 1776

To show the tactics the British used to force colonist into the republican values and how colonial resistance to British rule increased between 1763 and 1776.

These strict policies were implemented to get Britain out of their war debt, which came after the French and Indian war. During the seven year war American colonist sold and traded goods with the French in the West Indies, increasing Britain’s feeling of resentment towards the colonist. After the defeat of the French, frontiersmen from the colonies began to migrate over the mountains and into tribal land in the upper Ohio valley but the Indian tribes fought back. The British feared that an escalation of fighting between the colonist and Indian tribes would disrupt western trade. As a result the Proclamation of 1763 was created to keep settlers from advancing beyond the Appalachian Mountains. In the opinions of the frontiersmen they were just claiming what was already their land. The Proclamation of 1763 was ineffective, proving that the colonist showed resistance by disobeying the British. The following year Britain imposed the production of colonial manufacturing to stop, so it wouldn’t compete with the rapidly expanding industries of their empire. The sugar act of 1764 was created to da mage the market for sugar growing in the colonies because the act demanded a higher tax on sugar.
