Answer 1

ANSWER: Students should recognize several factors. Once the French were removed from North America as potential Indian allies, the middle ground between whites and Indians shrunk.
The result was Indian alliances (like the Covenant Chain) and attacks (like Pontiac's
Uprising) and the Paxton Boys. To keep the two groups apart, the British imposed the Proclamation Line of 1763 and stationed an army. The cost of the army was one factor leading the British to start taxing Americans and precipitating the crisis. Students should also recognize that the Second Continental Congress explicitly warned Indians to stay neutral, and that although some tribes did, many others sided with the British, playing their own role in the conflict among whites.
