Treaty of Paris (1355)

The Treaty of Paris on January 5, 1355 ended tensions that had built up between Amadeus VI. , Count of Savoy, and France's royal house. The Count wanted to purchase the adjoining Savoy Dauphiné, but France had forestalled him with a higher price and random hereditary succession. In addition, there had been in the past smaller military conflicts over free float in the other country between the Parties. Since Amadeus VI. in that year, married to Bonne of Bourbon, the time for a dispute settlement was favorable.

Finally, the Pays de Gex fell to the county. The ownership realignments of Savoy agreed to King John II of France.
