In the Treaty of Paris, the UK recognized the American colonies as free from British rule. It also ceded to the new American nation all lands south of Canada, and east of the Mississippi River to the Americans. The area west of the Appalachian Mountains were unsettled lands that offered new people a chance to start farms and cultivate the land. With that said, there was every reason for Americans to make use of the lands acquired by the treaty with Great Britain.
