Treaties in history
Treaties of every kind recorded in Wikidata, from peace treaties to alliances, each placed where Wikidata puts it and dated to the day where it is known.
Open the live mapWhat you see
- Each treaty as a politics mark on its date, all at one size: a treaty has nothing to count.
- A page for each, with its Wikipedia summary and the events near it in time and place.
- Opened from this page, the map plays 1600 to 1900 over Europe.
Where the data comes from
- WikidataItems that are treaties, with a date and a place; 93% have a Wikipedia article.
Taken from Wikidata when the set is imported; a treaty added there since appears after the next import.
Good to know
- Europe dominates: France alone holds about one treaty in seven, and France, the United States, Germany and Britain together nearly four in ten.
- A treaty is one point, though it binds whole countries.
- The record doesn’t say who signed or whether a treaty held; the article does.
- The peace agreements of conflicts since 1990 are a set of their own, from PA-X.
