Royal proclamation of 1763. After the French and Indian wars the British had won the Ohio valley territory (Basically everything from the East coast to the Mississippi river). However, the British did not want the colonies to settle west of the Appalachian mountains because they were having enough problems controlling them while they were relatively close on the coastal colonies. So, most of the land between the mountains and the Mississippi river became Indian territory although a few adventurous souls did settle there. After the colonies broke free of England they began to settle the Ohio valley. We stopped there until after the Louisiana purchase got us even more land. Finally we took the west coast from Mexican/Spanish control.
