Treaty of Concordia

1648 · 17th century

The Treaty of Concordia, signed on 23 March 1648, divided the Caribbean island of Saint Martin between France and the Dutch Republic after the Spanish garrison had left. The French received the larger northern part and the Dutch the southern part with its salt ponds. The division survives today as the French Collectivity of Saint Martin and Dutch Sint Maarten, one of the oldest borders in the Caribbean.
