Treaty of Berwick (1639)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Treaty of Berwick (or the Peace of Berwick) was signed on June 18, 1639 between Charles I of England and the Scots. Archibald Johnston was involved in the negotiations before King Charles was forced to sign the treaty. The agreement, overall, officially ended the First Bishops' War. After the treaty was signed, King Charles immediately began to gather the resources he needed in order to strengthen his armies. At the beginning of the Second Bishops' War, the agreement was broken.
