Why did Britain strengthen its control over the American colonies after the French and Indian War?

Question 24 options:

to prevent the colonies from declaring their independence from Britain


to limit further colonial trade with Native American peoples


to prepare for an invasion of Spanish outposts in the Louisiana Territory


to recover from the economic cost of fighting a war with France

Respuesta :

the answer is a sort of combination of the first and last options: the British went into extreme debt from the french and Indian war.  They planned on repaying those debts by taxing the american colonies, which they had protected during the war.  The threat of independence only came into fruition as a result of the taxation. The best choice would be the fourth: to recover from the economic cost of fighting a war with France
