Pssst, Walter, we have a problem here--the Treaty of Paris of 1763 could not have ended the American Revolution, which began in 1775, and ended with the Treaty of Paris of 1783. You might wanna consider some editing here . . .

Yup, that's definitely the Treaty of Paris of 1763 you've got linked there, Boss--it ended what is known in North America as the French and Indian War, and which coincides with the Seven Years War in Europe.

1783 was, as far as I know, the PEACE of Paris.

I admit that my knowledge of US-American history is a little better than rudimentary.
Therefor, I posted this thread, thinking, I might learn a bit.

This link provides the treaty in some more languages :wink:

Ah well, Boss, your post is misleading, since the two are apt to be confused by you announcing the Treaty of Paris, and then proceeding to discuss the "Peace" of Paris. I think your distinction is nugatory, however, and both can be reasonably referred to as the Treaty of Paris.

Well, might be this is due to my translation of the here used terms. (We call the war 1754 - 1763, btw, 'British-French Colonial War'.)
