Answer 1

All hail the great search engine Google! My friend, that is the treaty that ended what history as we know it calls the French and Indian War. The following link will start you on your quest for information. Google can help you fill in the blanks Wikipedia may leave. Pay special attention to web sites that end with an .edu. these sites can usually be trusted and are often peer reviewed. Happy hunting! :)

Answer 2

The treaty ended the French and Indian War in the Colonies and it's counterpart war in Europe called the Seven Year War. The Colonist (English) were fighting the French and Indians over the Ohio River Valley that was a very lucrative piece of land, the tension spilled over into Europe and the English and French continued fighting over there. The Treaty of Paris 1763, not to be confused with the Treaty of Paris 1783 which would end the Revolutionary war, ended both of those wars. In the Treaty of Paris the English were given all land East of the Mississippi and land North into Canada as well as Florida. The French were smart and gave the port city of New Orleans to Spain prior to the end of the war so that the English would not get it and so that France would still have a lucrative port in America to operate from. After the French and Indian War tensions began to arise between the Colonist and Great Britain. The Colonist no longer respected the English because they looked weak during the war (sort of like watching your dad get beat up). The British thought the Colonist were acting ungrateful (sort of like spoiled little brats). These tensions are going to build very much like a parent child relationship, until the start of the Revolutionary War in 1775.

Answer 3

The Treaty of Paris, often called Peace of Paris or the Treaty of 1763 was signed on Feb 10 1763 by the Kingdoms of Great Britain, France and Spain with Portugal in agreement.
Together with the Treaty of Hubertusburg, it ended the French and Indian War/Seven Years War. The treaties marked the beginning of an extensive period of British dominance outside of Europe.
While the bulk of conquered territories were restored to their pre-war owners, the British made some substantial overseas gains at the expense of France and to a lesser extent Spain.

Answer 4

The Treaty of Paris, often called the Peace of Paris, or the Treaty of 1763, was signed on February 10, 1763, by the kingdoms of Great Britain, France and Spain, with Portugal in agreement. Together with the Treaty of Hubertusburg, it ended the French and Indian War/Seven Years' War. The treaties marked the beginning of an extensive period of British dominance outside of Europe.

While the bulk of conquered territories were restored to their pre-war owners, the British made some substantial overseas gains at the expense of France and, to a lesser extent, Spain. Preferring to keep Guadaloupe, France gave up New France and all of its claims to the territory east of the Mississippi River to Britain. Spain ceded Florida to the British, but later received New Orleans and French Louisiana from France; Manila and Cuba were restored to Spain. France retained Saint Pierre and Miquelon and recovered Guadeloupe, Martinique, and Saint Lucia in exchange for Dominica, Grenada, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and Tobago going to the British. In India, the French lost out to the British, receiving back its "factories" (trading posts), but agreeing to support the British client governments, as well as returning Sumatra and agreeing not to base troops in Bengal. The British garrison on the Mediterranean island of Minorca was returned to her control, having been captured by the French at the outbreak of hostilities in Europe.

Britain returned the slave station on the isle of Gorée to the French, but gained the Senegal River and its settlements. Britain agreed to demolish its fortifications in Honduras, but received permission from Spain to keep a logwood-cutting colony there. Britain confirmed in the treaty the rights of its new subjects to practice the Roman Catholic religion and received confirmation of the continuation of the British king's Hanoverian right as a Prince-elector of the Holy Roman Empire.

It is sometimes claimed that the British King George III renounced his claim to be King of France by the treaty. (From 1340 to 1360, from 1369 to 1420, and from 1422, the monarchs of England and Great Britain had claimed the French throne). However, this a historical myth, and it is also falsely attributed to some of the treaties of the French Revolutionary Wars. Such a renunciation is nowhere in the text of the treaty, and, in fact, George III continued to be styled "King of France" and used the fleurs-de-lis as part of his arms until 1801, when Britain and Ireland united. It was dropped then because the claim was regarded as anachronistic.
