The Treaty of Amiens, signed in 1802, marked the end of the French Revolutionary Wars. It was negotiated between France and Great Britain, with Cornwallis serving as the British representative. The treaty restored peace between the two nations, but it proved to be short-lived, as hostilities resumed in 1803.
