Spain ceded Florida to Britain as part of the Treaty of Paris in 1763, which ended the Seven Years' War (also known as the French and Indian War). The treaty required Spain to relinquish Florida to Britain in exchange for the return of Havana, Cuba, which had been captured by the British during the war. Spain's weakened position and military losses during the conflict facilitated this territorial loss. The change marked a significant shift in colonial power dynamics in North America.
