Convention of Moss
Norway-Sweden [1814]
Quick Summary

This convention was a direct consequence of the Treaty of Kiel, which had ceded Norway from Denmark to Sweden. Norway, however, resisted this transfer, framed its own constitution, and fought against Swedish incorporation. The Convention of Moss ultimately led to a royal union between Norway and Sweden, which lasted until 1905.12
