Treaty

The treaty was a permanent treaty in the history of the United States and is considered the oldest treaty of its kind in its history with foreign countries.[2] This treaty resulted the United States not recognising the French protectorate in Morocco. Despite the repeated request of France, it did not recognise the protectorate until it entered World War I on October 20, 1917.[3]

The agreement included 25 articles dealing with various topics:[4]

  • Residence of citizens of the two countries.
  • Freedom of trade.
  • System of ships in ports and on the high seas.
  • Adjusting transactions during the war between the two parties.
  • Observe neutrality in an event of war between the two parties and another foreign country.
