Treaty of Madrid (1801)

The Treaty of Madrid was signed in Madrid on 29 September 1801 between John VI of Portugal and representatives from the French Republic. Based on the terms of the accord, Portugal was obligated to maintain the tenets of the Treaty of Badajoz. However, additions were made to the Treaty of Badajoz whereby Portugal was forced to pay France an indemnity of 20 million francs. Moreover, Portugal agreed to capitulate half of Guiana to France. These additions were established and dictated by Napoleon Bonaparte after he sent his army into Portugal.
