Talk:Treaty of Paris

Naming of treaties
This page needs to be broken-up. The question is, what should we name each Treaty of Paris? Should we use more natural disambiguation such as Treaty of Paris of 1783 or should we use parenthetical disambiguation such as Treaty of Paris (1783)? I would tend to prefer the parenthetical route because the two "of"s bug me and each of these treaties are usually just called the Treaty of Paris and the pipe trick can be used with parentheticals (  ->  Treaty of Paris ). --mav

I agree on the use of parentheses. It's cleaner.

In addition, I notice lots of treaties that do not follow the "Treaty of Paris" naming which is pertinent to this article. I think the rest should be separated and placed into another article.

 * According to Spanish-Portuguese War, 1735-1737, "On March 16, 1737 under influence of France, Great Britain and the Netherlands, the Treaty of Paris was signed." Where is the Treaty of Paris (1737)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.102.210.163 (talk) 20:08, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

As of today, 6 June 2021, I see a Treaty of Paris for 1900 but not for 1737.

Paris as location
Why have there been so many treaties signed in Paris? --70.141.192.186 (talk) 23:38, 9 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Maybe because Paris is the main country where diplomatic dealings are settled.
 * But usually when there is a war that broke out and it involves France, then treaties usually go to Paris. :--82.34.154.168 (talk) 11:37, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

But even wars not involving France are resolved in Paris, such as the Spanish-American war. --132.170.112.72 (talk) 13:52, 28 September 2012 (UTC)


 * I don't see what's amazing about having many treaties signed in Paris. When Paris as a city was one of the major hubs in history, as Athens, Rome or London have been over many centuries, it is natural that things can be signed in Paris at different times in history, especially if France was involved.
