Ships of the Line and Conditional Italian Territories
- When
- 1800
- Where
- San Ildefonso, Spain
Spain was to supply six named ships of the line, while the Italian compensation remained geographically vague and conditional on French confirmation.
Under the treaty's terms, Urquijo rejected a request for the Floridas but agreed to Louisiana plus six ships of war of seventy-four guns, armed, equipped, and ready for French crews: San Antonio, Intrepido, San Genaro, Atlante, Conquistador, and Infante Don Pelayo. Clause II left the compensation vague—Tuscany, the three Roman legations, or other Italian provinces forming a rounded state—and Urquijo insisted Spain would hand over Louisiana and the ships only once France confirmed which Italian territories it would receive.
