West Florida Boundry
The Treaty of Paris concluded the struggle for land in the New World between
France and Britain, known as the French and Indian War. As a term of the
treaty, Great Britain received most of the formally French territory between
the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River. France also ceded
West Louisiana to its ally Spain in compensation for western Florida, which
Spain yielded to Great Britain. Britain, in turn, created West Florida. In 1764,
this spot was the northern boundary of West Florida, marked by a line from
the Yazoo and Mississippi Rivers’ confluence east to the Chattahoochee River.
