The Spanish gained some territory along the Mississippi River and in Florida (these areas are called West Florida and East Florida, where West Florida is made of the southern areas of Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana east of the Mississippi River and East Florida is made of the Florida Peninsula).

The Europeans and Americans both helped support the Greek Revolutionary Movement. They did so to help Greece gain independence as America and many European nations had. They gave both moral and monetary support.
The Revolutionary War was basically Americans getting tired of the British taxing them on everything, and then rebelling and defeating the British to gain independence. So, yes. It DEFFINITELY involved the British.
The saying, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" comes to mind. France and Spain were at that time traditional enemies of and territorial competitors to England, so they naturally supported the rebellious Americans against England. It was probably a factor as well that France and Spain were still Roman Catholic while England had broken ties with Rome two centuries prior, and both France and Spain had suffered many defeats at the hands of the English. Helping the Americans gain independence from England would have been a nice bit of revenge.
The colonists in America fought against the British to gain their independence from Great Britain. Prior to the Revolutionary War the colonies belonged to Great Britain and the colonists were British subjects.
Pinckney's Treaty of 1795 was between the United States and Spain. The treaty allowed Americans to travel freely along the Mississippi river. It also settled any boundary disputes between the United States and Spain.
France played a large role in helping the Americans gain independence from Great Britain. They supplied troops and used their navy to help battle the British navy. The victory of George Washington at Yorktown would not have been possible without the French troops and navy.
