The Treaty of Tripoli (Treaty of Peace…
November 1796 CE
It is signed in Tripoli on November 4, 1796, and will be signed again at Algiers (for a third-party witness) on January 3, 1797.
It will be ratified by the United States Senate unanimously without debate on June 7, 1797, taking effect June 10, 1797, with the signature of the second U.S. President, John Adams.
It has attracted attention in recent decades because of a clause in Article 11 stating that "the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion."
