The signing of the Treaty of Paris…
May 1784 CE
Ceylon is restored to Dutch control.
The British gain the right of free trade with part of the Dutch East Indies, which had been a major war aim for British merchants.
The French also return the other Dutch colonies they had recaptured from the British, including the ones in the West Indies (like St. Eustatius, which had been taken by Admiral Rodney in February 1781, but had been retaken by the French Admiral De Grasse on November 27, 1781)
