Treaty of Florence

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Treaty of Florence was signed on March 18, 1801 between France and the Kingdom of Naples. Naples ceded some central Italian possessions, the island of Elba, and the Athena of Velletri to France. French garrisons were imposed in several Italian towns, and Neapolitan harbours were closed to British and Ottoman vessels.
