British involvement in western settlement alarmed colonists because it threatened their autonomy and aspirations for land expansion. The British government imposed restrictions, such as the Proclamation of 1763, which limited westward expansion to avoid conflicts with Native Americans. Colonists felt that these measures undermined their rights and economic opportunities, leading to growing resentment toward British authority. This tension contributed to the rising dissatisfaction that ultimately fueled the American Revolution.
