4to. 41, [2]p. Modern marbled paper wrappers. ***** The treaty between the British and the Portuguese government (then in exile in its colony Brazil), known as the Strangford Treaty, was signed at Rio de Janeiro on 19th February 1810. The treaty was negotiated by the Anglo-Irish diplomat, Percy Smythe, 6th Viscount Strangford. The treaty granted the British advantageous commercial privileges, notably preferential tariffs of 15 per cent on British goods imported into Brazil, in exchange for the British defence of Portugal and its colonies during the Peninsular Wars. British Protestants were given freedom of worship in Brazil and cases involving British subjects resident in Brazil were to be tried before judges appointed by the British Crown. Text of 34 Articles is in Portuguese with English translation on facing pages. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 17/134
