What was the British perspective on the Proclamation of 1763?

In the Proclamation of 1763, King George III sold the land west of the Allegheny Mountains to Quebec. It did not matter that King George II had already sold the same land to Pennsylvania and Virginia. The British had extremely little respect for the settlers living in Ohio. That was in spite of the fact that American militias had run the French and Indians out of that area in the war and would ignore the Proclamation. So, the British idea was they only needed to make a proclamation and the Americans would obey it. The American idea was the British were free to run their mouths. We had fought and conquered that land, and we had paid for it. It was ours.


Why did the Indians side with the British in the war of 1812?

Leading up to the war many Native American tribes (American Indians) had been having their territories sold without permission or under permission granted under extreme duress, to settlers from the United States. This unjust to the Natives, who not individually but as a tribe had greater claim the land. It also in many cases broke historical treaties as much of the land had been promised to specific tribes for their help fighting against the British in the Revolutionary War. American settlers were pushing the natives out of their homes often with force and blood. Natives that chose to fight back found an ally in the British as they were seen as less of a threat to their culture, way of life, and right to the land that they had been living on for over 400 generations.
