Was a treaty between the United States<span> and </span>Spain<span> in 1819 that ceded </span>Florida<span> to the U.S. and defined the boundary between the U.S. and </span>New Spain<span>. It settled a standing border dispute between the two countries and was considered a triumph of American diplomacy. It came in the midst of increasing tensions related to Spain's territorial boundaries in North America against the United States and Great Britain in the aftermath of the American Revolution; and also during the </span>Latin American Wars of Independence<span>. Florida had become a burden to Spain, which could not afford to send settlers or garrisons. </span>Madrid<span> decided to cede the territory to the United States through the Adams–Onís Treaty in exchange for settling the boundary dispute along the </span>Sabine River<span> in </span>Spanish Texas<span>. The treaty established the boundary of U.S. territory and claims through the Rocky Mountains and west to the Pacific Ocean, in exchange for the U.S. paying residents' claims against the Spanish government up to a total of $5,000,000 and relinquishing the US claims on parts of Spanish Texas west of the </span>Sabine River<span> and other Spanish areas, under the terms of the </span>Louisiana Purchase<span>.</span>
