Question

Which list summarizes the terms of the 1783 Treaty of Paris? (5 points)

Answer 1

Answer:

Britain recognizes the U.S. as independent; U.S. territory is outlined; British troops will remain in the U.S.; U.S. agrees not to fish off Canadian waters; Britain can collect all debts; property will not be returned to loyalists.

The Treaty of Paris, signed in Paris by representatives of King George III of Great Britain and representatives of the United States of America on September 3, 1783, ended the American Revolutionary War.

The treaty set the boundaries between the British Empire in North America and the United States of America, on lines "exceedingly generous" to the latter. Details included fishing rights and restoration of property and prisoners of war.
