What was the agreement that gave Louisiana to Spain?

France, about to lose the French and Indian War in Canada, ceded its southern claims (Louisiana) to its Seven Years War ally Spain under the secret Treaty of Fontainebleau (1762). This meant that Britain only received the smaller part of Louisiana, east of the Mississippi, in the Treaty of Paris (1763). Spain controlled Louisiana, the Gulf of Mexico coast, and the lower Mississippi Valley during the Revolutionary War (1776-1783), after which Britain still controlled Canada, but none of Louisiana. Under another secret treaty, the Third Treaty of San Ildefonso (1800), Spain returned Louisiana to Napoleon, who sold all of the territory to the US in 1803.


What was Spain's reaction to the Louisiana Purchase by the US?

The Louisiana territory was controlled by France from 1699 to 1762. France handed over the territory to Spain in 1762 and then again reacquired the territory in 1800. During their reign Spain had denied Americans access to New Orleans. Spain did not like American influence to increase in the territory. France at the time of reacquiring the territory had assured Spain that the territory would not be handed over to third party. Spain protested against Louisiana purchase which double the size of United States. Spain and USA later got into a dispute over the boundaries of the territory.


What happened As a result of the French Indian war?

Under the Treaty of Paris (1763), France ceded Canada to Great Britain and gave up their claims in the Ohio River valley. This led to an expansion of the British American colonists into the interior, in spite of the Royal Proclamation of 1763 that tried to dissuade them. The Mississippi River became the dividing line for the Louisiana territory (New France), with each side given free access. Louisiana had already been ceded to Spain in 1762, although France later secretly arranged to regain it.


When did Spain transfer Louisiana territory to France?

In 1762 ceded what came to be called the Louisiana Territory to Spain in return for their help during the French and Indian wars. In 1800 my sources tell me that Spain gave or sold the territory back to France. In turn France sold it to the U.S. in 1803. I do not know how or why the transfer in 1800 was done. In writing a small history project, I would like to find how that transfer was made, and why. Any help?

Spain secretly returned Louisiana to France in 1800.
