The Treaty of Aranjuez was signed on December 25, 1780, between Spain and Morocco. Based on the terms of the treaty, Morocco recognized Spanish rule over Melilla. [1] The treaty defused tensions, lessening the chance that Morocco would agree to British requests to declare war on the Spanish, as in 1774. [2]
