Treaty of Stockholm (Great Northern War)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Treaty of Stockholm refers to two treaties signed in 1719 and 1720 that ended the Great Northern War between Sweden on one side and Hannover and Prussia. The last remains of the conflict were then concluded by signing the Treaty of Frederiksborg with Denmark-Norway in 1720 and the Treaty of Nystad with Russia in 1721.
In the treaty with Hannover on November 9, 1719, Sweden cedes the dominion of Bremen-Verden.
In the treaty with Prussia on January 21, 1720, Sweden cedes Stettin (Szczecin), Swedish Pomerania south of the river Peene, the islands of Usedom and Wollin, and the towns of Damm and Gollnow.
