<P> Some Native American peoples -- primarily in the Great Lakes region -- had a long and close relationship with France , and were dismayed to find that they were now under British sovereignty . They missed the amicable relationship with the French , along with the gifts they bestowed upon them , neither of which they had with the British . Pontiac 's Rebellion ( 1763 -- 66 ) , a war launched by a group of natives around the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley , was an unsuccessful effort by the western tribes to push the British back . However tribes were able to take over a large number of the forts which commanded the waterways involved in trade within the region and export to Great Britain . The Proclamation of 1763 had been in the works before Pontiac 's Rebellion , but the outbreak of the conflict hastened the process . British officials hoped the proclamation would reconcile American Indians to British rule and help to prevent future hostilities . </P>
