Treaty of Paris (1783)
In 1783 the peace of Paris was signed to end the Revolutionary war between Great Britain and the United States. The Treaty of Paris was set to establish The United States as an independent country. Britain was to grant The US fishing rights to land; all prisoners of war were to be released as well as the establishing US boundaries between present day Canada. Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and John Jay were the three men who signed the peace on behalf of the United States with David Hartly representing Great Britain.

To the north, the treaty stated that the boundary of the United States extended from the "most northwesternmost point" of the Lake of the Woods in present-day Minnesota, Manitoba, and Ontario, directly westward until it reached the Mississippi River. However, the Mississippi does not extend that far northward, and the line going west from the Lake of the Woods never intersects the river. Additionally, the Treaty of Paris did not explain how the new border would function in terms of controlling the movement of people and trade between British North America and the United States. The American diplomats' expectation of negotiating a commercial treaty with Great Britain to resolve some of the unfinished business of the Treaty of Paris failed to materialize in 1784. Despite government agreements for British evacuation of northern forts, Britain continued to occupy the forts. Meanwhile the British were dissatisfied with the American harassment of loyalists. The United States would thus wait until 1794 to negotiate its first commercial agreement with the British Empire, the Jay Treaty.
