The Peace of Vienna, also known as the First Treaty of Vienna, was a series of four treaties signed between 30 April 1725 and 5 November 1725 involving the Habsburg Monarchy, the Holy Roman Empire (on behalf of Austria), and Bourbon Spain. Later, in 1726, the Russian Empire joined this newly formed alliance.[1] The signing of this treaty established the Austro-Spanish Alliance, which led to the Fourth Anglo-Spanish War (1727-1729).[1] This alliance caused Austria to withdraw from the Quadruple Alliance. In this new partnership, the Habsburgs gave up all formal claims to the Spanish throne, while Spain renounced its claims to the southern Netherlands and several other territories.[1]
