A treaty is ratified when it is approved by the relevant government authorities, such as the legislature or the head of state. The steps involved in the ratification process typically include negotiation, signing of the treaty, review by legal experts, approval by the government, and formal acceptance or ratification.
Accession: see Ratification. Accession is not the usual method by which a State, which has taken part in the negotiations or signed the treaty, may subsequently consent to be bound by its terms. The treaty may stipulate accession by certain States. In that case, these States have a right to accede to the treaty. Accession may not also require an invitation to accede decided by the Committee of Ministers, upon request of the country interested. In general, accession is permitted after the entry into force of the treaty.
The Treaty of Paris, which ended the Spanish-American War. Spain surrendered control to Cuba and ceded Puerto Rico, parts of the Spanish West Indies, Guam, and the Philippines to the United States.
The Adams-Onis Treaty, also called the Transcontinental Treaty of 1819, attempted to settle the boundary between the Spanish lands belonging to Mexico and the American territory. Spain, in Europe, was having many difficulties and knew that it needed to negotiate a treaty with the United States or lose Florida and some of its other holdings. Spanish foreign minister Onis signed a treaty with Secretary of State John Quincy Adams drawing a boarder between the Spanish owned lands and the newly acquired Louisiana Territory by the United States. This treaty allowed Spain to maintain its holding of Texas, California, and most of what is now New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, Arizona and parts of Wyoming and Colorado. In return for ratification Spain gave up all claims to the Oregon territory (which included northern California). This treaty wasn't ratified by the United States until 1831.
