2 The treaty was concluded on February, 1819 But the treaty was stated publicly on February, 1821 *Important to note: During this time, due to the revolutions for independence in South America, Spanish power was weakened! Which is good for the U.S!*

3 Adams-Onis treaty = Transcontinental Treaty Tension between U.S and Spain over Florida The goal of the U.S was to gain access to Flor ida, in exchange of the U.S government paying the residents’ claims against the Spanish gove rnment up to $5,000,000. A treaty in attempt to draw clearer border in North America

4 During the 1800’s, it was a period where numerous South American countries such as Argentina (1816), Brazil (1822), Bolivia (1822) and Chile (1810) declared independence against the Spaniards, which gave Spaniards hard time to keep all the colonies under their control!

5 The Americans and Spanish were the ones in conflict Adams-Onís Treaty is named after John Quincy Adams, the Secretary of State in U.S, and Spanish Minister Luis de Onís

6 Main reason is for the sake of territorial expansion President James Monroe desired. After the Louisiana Purchase (1803), President James Monroe considered Florida to be part of Louisiana. To drive the Spaniards away as far as U.S can.

7 The Spanish, so far seems to have gained nothing. From their loss of Lousiana in 1803 to even Florida on 1819. However… The Spanish gained west of Louisiana, Texas to California!

8 The treaty seems to have been positively concluded overall… with U.S. gaining control of Florida while Spain gaining west of Louisiana to California.
