The actions of the Maroons that forced British colonial authorities to conclude a treaty with them are best explained as evidence of reactions against which of the following global trends in the period 1450–1750?

The increasing expansion and centralization of state power.

Explanation:

The Maroons were the descendants of the Africans who were brought to the Americans in the late 16 to 17 centuries who fled to the mountains of the islands.

Colonel Robert Bennett, made a treaty with the Blacks under the Governor of Jamaica's authority in 1739.  According to the treaty, if any English White man disturb or bother any of the people or destroy any of the property of the people belonging to Captain Quao, then they can complain and get justice which is their right.

During 1450 to 1750, the increasing expansion as well as decentralization of the state power shows the global trends of actions that Maroons forced the British to make a treaty with them.
