    Explanation
    Pontiac, a leader of the Ottawa tribe, led a rebellion during the French and Indian War known as "Pontiac's Rebellion." This uprising was a response to British control and policies in the Great Lakes region, as well as the encroachment of British settlers on Native American lands. Pontiac united several Native American tribes in an attempt to drive the British out of the region. The rebellion had a significant impact on British colonial policies, leading to the implementation of the Proclamation of 1763, which restricted colonial settlement west of the Appalachian Mountains.

    Just before France's defeat in the French and Indian war, Spain joined "Too late to change the outcome , but not too late to embarass herself."Based on this, the Spanish got in too late.  This would cause them to...

    • Give up land in the new world

    • Surrender ALL their land

    • Do the Hokey-Pokey

    Correct Answer
    A. Give up land in the new world
    Explanation
    The Spanish joined the war too late, which suggests that they were not able to make a significant impact on the outcome. As a result, they would likely have to give up some of their land in the new world as a consequence of their defeat. Surrendering all their land seems too extreme, as it is unlikely that they would lose all their territories. The option of doing the Hokey-Pokey is unrelated and does not make sense in this context.
