Answer:
D. Colonists wanted to move west into lands that they rightfully gained in winning the French and Indian War, but the Proclamation of 1763 would not allow them to move west of the Appalachian Mountains.
Explanation:
The Colonists have to spend large amount of reserouces for their involvement in the French and Indian war. They lost a lot of manpower along with money that they used to purchase weapon, supplies, and medication.
They believed that the resources that exist in west of the Appalachian Mountains will help them recuperate the loss.
But in 1763 , King George II enacted the Proclamation of 1763. This proclamation foraged the settlers to move from the west of the mountains since it was delineated as an Indian reserve. This cause the colonists to develop deep resentment ofr the British empire.
Answer:
The germans and the scots-irish were usually very poor, some of them arrived as indentured servants and only gained their liberty after a few years of unpaid work. They found it hard to establish themselves in the cities and in the coastal areas, where the land was either occupied or more expensive.
In the case of the scots-irish, the vast majority settled in the south and the best land was occupied by rich plantation owners. These new immigrants did not have the economic means to start their own plantations and buy slaves.
They decied to settled in the "backcountry", a region that corresponds roughly with the Appalachian mountains. The land there was cheap, but the risks were higher.
The presence of Anglos was the similarity--Anglo (white) people in the regions held economic interests leading to the revolts against the leadership and a demand for annexation.
After the Mexican Revolution, the whites living in Texas, who also were the main ranchers of the region, asked the US to assist in a revolution against Mexico to become independent. The independent nation requested the US to annex the state so the whites could regain connection to the US. During the Mexican-American War, the region of California also staged a revolt against Mexico and declared themselves a free republic called the Bear Flag Republic. The white settlers in the region assisted the US with the war and after became part of US territory. This is the same as Hawaii, white land owners and farmers asked the US to assist in a revolt and eventual annexation of the islands. This put whites in power in Hawaii to control the territory.
