Wars and Battles Treaty of Paris (1783) War for Independence
The Treaty of Paris was signed between Britain and America on September 3, 1783, and provided for:
The recognition of American independence
The establishment of American boundaries between the Atlantic on the east to the Mississippi River on the west, and from the 49th parallel and Great Lakes on the north to the 31st parallel on the south (or everything east of the Mississippi except the Floridas and New Orleans)
The recognition of American fishing rights along the Newfoundland banks, a point sought by the New England interests
The pledge of the Continental Congress to "earnestly recommend" to the states that they settle property issues with the Loyalists, a provison insisted upon by the British.
Amid the hoopla and self-congratulation at the end of the war, one sobering fact slowly dawned on the American consciousness. The victorious nation had accumulated a massive debt – more than $11 million in national debt and state debts of more than $65 million. The war's cost significantly impacted later events.
