Settlers did things like occupy and degrade popular hunting grounds or water sources. Like if a settler built a house and barn and fences somewhere, it might ruin the place as a hunting ground because the animals might shy away from it. A fence in a pasture might block and annoy a Native American who was traveling across that area. In some cases, settlers unknowingly violated taboos. Like maybe they cut down trees from a holy grove to use for timber or firewood.
King George III refused to even accept or consider the Olive Branch petition sent by the Continental Congress.While George III did not respond to the Olive Branch Petition, he did react to the petition by declaring his own Proclamation of Rebellion.
