The Jay's Treaty, signed in 1794, was an agreement between the United States and Great Britain. It was named after John Jay, the chief negotiator and the first Chief Justice of the United States. The treaty aimed to resolve lingering tensions from the American Revolutionary War, addressing issues such as trade, the withdrawal of British troops from American territory, and the resolution of outstanding debts. It helped stabilize relations between the two nations, although it faced criticism domestically.
