Publisher's Synopsis
This volume contains the texts of the Treaties of Peace and Alliance signed at Paris on May 30, 1814, and November 20, 1815. These treaties, presented to the House of Commons, mark significant moments in European history following the Napoleonic Wars. The 1814 treaty addressed the settlement of France after Napoleon's initial defeat, while the 1815 treaty finalized terms after his ultimate defeat at Waterloo.
These documents provide essential insights into the diplomatic strategies and power dynamics of the era, offering a valuable resource for historians, political scientists, and anyone interested in the shaping of modern Europe. The treaties detail territorial adjustments, reparations, and alliances that aimed to establish lasting peace and stability after years of conflict. A crucial record for understanding the post-Napoleonic order.
