a. spanish
b. dutch
c. native american
d. french
The Proclamation Line of 1763 was issued by the British after the French and Indian War. It was intended to prevent British colonists from expanding westward into lands that were recognized as Native American territories (to reduce conflicts with Native Americans and also to better control colonial expansion). Spanish territories were mainly in the southwestern parts of North America and not the primary target here, Dutch had limited colonial presence in this context, and French territories were largely ceded after the war, so the line was about Native American lands.
