Ryswick, treaty of, 1697. In July 1697 the treaty brought to an end the
Nine Years War, in which Louis XIV's France faced a grand coalition of England, the emperor, the Dutch, and Spain. Louis agreed to return most of his territorial acquisitions or
réunions made since
Nijmegen, but retained the important fortress town of Strasbourg. He recognized William III as king of England while refusing to order James II to leave French territory. The Dutch were allowed to garrison
barrier fortresses in the Spanish Netherlands. The treaty, negotiated with much difficulty, lasted only four years before the
War of the Spanish Succession broke out.
