[edit] Old talk

I have absolutely no clue about this stuff...I am just looking on here about History homework!!

I just can't believe it. They sold us out for Guadeloupe........ stupid french.

"Preferring to keep Guadaloupe, France gave up New France and all of its claims to the territory east of the Mississippi River to Britain."

This makes me sad.... there are never any expense reports on any of these losses; only talk of the fact that they DID in fact lose these things. We live in an unexperienced time. We have no idea how much losing a territory can hurt a country.... *sigh* Just makes like more difficult.

The Canada vs. Guadaloupe is a historical myth (see Philip Lawson, "A Taste for Empire and Glory" essay IV, pg. 577) - It's been thoroughly debunked and should be removed from the article * - AD, Ottawa, November 2006.

I'm sorry but it's not a myth; most people are aware of it. Read the right books.VincentG 23:19, 25 February 2007 (UTC) _______________________________________________________________________________________________________

what is the importance of the treaty of paris

Treaty Of Paris 1783 On February 10,1783 the Treaty of Paris was signed. Benjamin West, John Jay, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Henry Laurens, and William Temple Franklin signed it and celebrated. The Treaty of Paris was a document which stated that as the point at which France conveyed Louisiana Territory to Spain. The Treaty of Paris was to give Britain the east side of the Mississippi (including Baton Rouge, Louisiana which was to be part of the British territory of West Florida). New Orleans on the east side was given to France. The Mississippi River corridor in what is modern day Louisiana was to be reunited following the Louisiana Purchase in 1803.

[edit] Treaty of Fontainebleau

There should be some discussion of the Treaty of Fontainebleau, a secret treaty by which France ceded the Louisiana Territory to Spain in November 1762. France saw that it was losing the war and negotiated this treaty with Spain. The cession was recognized later. The article currently says that Spain gained these after the Treaty of Paris. I'm not familiar enough with this complex set of treaties and negotiations to venture a revision. For references, see for example [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] older ≠ wiser 12:17, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
