Treaty of Cardis
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Treaty of Cardis was a peace settlement made in 1661 between Muscovite Russia and the Swedish Empire. This particular agreement ended the Russo–Swedish War (1656–1658). Based on the terms of the treaty, Russia surrendered to Sweden all captured territories. Moreover, all vessels constructed at Tsarevich-Dmitriev were destroyed (the vessels were constructed in a shipyard founded by a boyar named Afanasy Ordin-Nashchokin). Overall, the Peace of Cardis maintained the territorial accords of the Treaty of Stolbovo.
