Simla Convention
The Simla Convention was a treaty negotiated at Simla in 1913–1914 by representatives of Britain, China and Tibet on the status and borders of Tibet. It proposed dividing Tibet into an autonomous Outer Tibet and an Inner Tibet under closer Chinese control. China's delegate initialled the draft but his government refused to sign, and Britain and Tibet signed it alone, together with the McMahon Line border agreement.
