Hey mate!! here's your answer

The dark line shown on the map was called the Proclamation Line of 1763. It was created by the Royal Proclamation of 1763, issued on October 7, 1763 by the King George III as a result of the acquisition by Great Britain of French territory in North America after the end of the French and Indian War. The proclamation was intended to organize the vast and new British lands in North America, and establish relations with the Amerindians by regulating the fur trade, colonization and purchase of land on the western border. The proclamation also aimed to assimilate the French population of Canada. His first objective was to make Canada a true British colony.

The proclamation prohibited settlers from settling beyond a line drawn along the Appalachian Mountains, a line that is geographically similar to the eastern continental divide route that runs north from Georgia to the Pennsylvania state border and New York, and to the northeast beyond the watershed over the St. Lawrence divide and from there northward through New England.
