Treaty of Paris

The treaty of Paris was signed on September 3, 1783 in The American Revolutionary War between Great Britain and the United States of America. While the other nations such as Spain and France had separated agreements. The peace notifications began in April of 1782 by some national representatives such as Benjamin Franklin, John Jay, Henry Laurens, and John Adams. And in the other part the British representatives were David Hartley and Richard Oswald.

The document was signed at the Hotel d'York by this same representatives of the United States. Benjamin Franklin was a strong proponent of Britain ceding Canada to America because he believed that having British territory physically bordering American territory would cause conflict in the future. Britain, however, refused. So conflict was made between this two states, while Spain and France were having their own plans for having their own American territories.

On September 3, Great Britain also signed a separated agreement with France and Spain and with the Netherlands. With the traty with Spain the territories of East and West Florida were ceded to Spain.The treaty with France was mostly about exchanges of captured territory (France's only net gains were the island of Tobago, and Senegal in Africa), but also reinforced earlier treaties, guaranteeing fishing rights off Newfoundland. The Netherlands have their own territories such as Ohio, Alabama, Tennessee, etc. They have plantations and also have rights for fishing and hunting. .
