2. The 1713 Treaties of Utrecht put a member of what European royal family on the Spanish throne?

The war was fought to keep the Spanish and French thrones from being united. The treaties granted the Bourbon candidate, Philip, the crown, but stipulated neither he nor his descendants could ever claim the French throne.

Answer: 1957

The 1992 Maastricht Treaty turned the EC into the EU we have today.

Neuilly was with Bulgaria, Sevres with Turkey, and Trianon with Hungary.

7. The 1922 Washington Treaty set the relative sizes of the British, American, and Japanese navies respectively at what ratio?

Answer: 5:5:3

The sizes of the French and Italian navies were also set at a little more than half of Japan's. A follow-up was signed in London in 1930, but they didn't do much do stop the coming of WWII.

Answer: Treaty of Nanking

This Opium War Treaty gave Britain in perpetuity Hong Kong island, a few other nearby islands, and a small strip of mainland China (Kowloon). The rest of present-day Hong Kong was leased to Britain in 1898.
9. The first large-scale International Peace Conference was held at the Hague in 1899. At this conference all of the following were forbidden except what?

Answer: Torpedoes shot from underwater vessels (submarines)

The conference didn't accomplish much substantial largely becaues two of the main participants, Britain and Germany, were hardly sincere in their wish to limit new weapons technology. In fact, these two nations didn't even sign the declarations stating these three limitations.
10. The 1954 Geneva Accords dealt with the affairs of which country?

Answer: Vietnam

Following their defeat at Dienbienphu, the French decided they had had enough of Indochina. The Accords also dealt with Laos and Cambodia, but the main result was a temporary splitting of Vietnam along the 17th prior to nationwide elections.
