Question

At the end of the war, France ceded New Orleans to _____

Answer 1

Answer:

At the end of the war, France ceded New Orleans to Spain.

Explanation:

In 1762 after  the brutal French and Indian War, the government of France negotiated a treaty with Spaiin -  the Treaty of Fontainebleau. The treaty effectively ceded the territory of Louisiana and the island of Orleans—today's New Orleans—to the Spaniards. This was done so as to to persuade the Spanish to end the Seven-Years War, because the Frenmch feared that the end result would be an English victory and that their influence over New Orleans and surrounding territories would come to a bitter end.
