Everything about The Peace Of Vervins totally explained
The
Peace of Vervins was signed between the representatives of
Henry IV of France and
Philip II of Spain on
2 May 1598, at the small town of
Vervins (
Aisne). Henry had declared war on Spain in
1595, and had recently promulgated the
Edict of Nantes, on
13 April. This treaty brought the
Wars of Religion in France to a practical end. Philip recognized the formerly
Protestant Henry as King of France and withdrew his forces from the French territory they still occupied, depriving the remnants of the
Catholic League of their support. Philip died on
13 September, but his heir
Philip III respected the terms of the treaty. The duke of Savoy, who had held back from the treaty, signed a separate
Treaty of Lyon with Henry in
1601.
