Answer:

They were angry that Britain had limited the area available for settlement.

Explanation:

The Royal Proclamation of 1763 was issued by King George III after Great Britain's acquisition of French territory in North America. The acquisition and proclamation were a consequence of the Seven Years' War. The proclamation forbade settlements west of a line drawn along the Appalachian Mountains, as this was considered an Indian Reserve.
