Under the Treaty of Paris (1763), France ceded Canada to Great Britain and gave up their claims in the Ohio River valley. This led to an expansion of the British American colonists into the interior, in spite of the Royal Proclamation of 1763 that tried to dissuade them.

The Mississippi River became the dividing line for the Louisiana territory (New France), with each side given free access. Louisiana had already been ceded to Spain in 1762, although France later secretly arranged to regain it.
