The treaty, ratified by both parties in 1795, averted war, solved many issues left over from the American Revolution, and opened ten years of peaceful trade in the midst of the [[French Revolutionary Wars]]. It was hotly contested by [[Democratic-Republican Party|Jeffersonian]]s but passed Congress  and became a central issue in the formation of the [[First Party System]].  Signed in November 1794, ratified and put into effect in 1795, it was also known as '''Jay Treaty''' or the '''Treaty of London'''.
