In 1762, France ceded ownership of Louisiana to Spain through the secret Treaty of Fontainebleau. This transfer occurred as France sought to compensate Spain for its losses in the Seven Years' War and to strengthen Spanish control in North America. The formal transfer of control took place in 1763, and Spain governed Louisiana until the territory was returned to France in 1800.
