How did the distance between Britain and its colonies affect the enforcement of the Proclamation of 1763?

The vast distance between Britain and its American colonies made it challenging for the British government to effectively enforce the Proclamation of 1763, which aimed to restrict colonial expansion westward beyond the Appalachian Mountains. Limited resources and communication delays hindered Britain's ability to monitor and control colonial activities, leading many settlers to ignore the proclamation. Additionally, colonial attitudes and aspirations for land further weakened Britain's authority, as settlers sought to expand into newly acquired territories despite official restrictions. This disconnect ultimately fueled resentment and contributed to growing tensions between the colonies and Britain.
