The Treaty of Ghent, signed on December 24, 1814, effectively ended the War of 1812 between the United States and Great Britain. It restored territorial boundaries to their pre-war status, with no significant territorial gains for either side. Additionally, the treaty did not address the issues of impressment or maritime rights that had initially fueled the conflict, but it laid the groundwork for improved relations between the two nations in the future.
