The Paris Peace Treaties

The Paris Peace Treaties, signed in 1947, were agreements that officially ended World War II between the Allies and Italy, Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, and Finland. These treaties redrew borders, imposed territorial adjustments, and established military restrictions on the defeated countries to prevent future conflicts. They aimed to restore peace and stability in Europe, acknowledging the changes caused by the war. While Italy and Finland regained independence, the treaties also addressed war crimes and set the groundwork for post-war international relations, influencing European geopolitics for years to come.
