The 1813 Treaty of Stockholm was a "treaty of concert and subsidy" between Great Britain and Sweden . It was signed on 3 March 1813 by Alexander Hope and Edward Thornton for Great Britain and by Lars von Engestrom and Gustaf af Wetterstedt for Sweden. ^[1] The treaty secured Swedish military cooperation against Napoleon . In return, Great Britain would support the destruction of Denmark-Norway by annexation of the Norwegian part and to pay subsidies to Sweden.

As part of the treaty, Sweden agrees to end its slave trade . Also, Britain ceded Guadeloupe to Sweden and British merchants were granted trading rights at Gothenburg , Karlshamn , and Stralsund . ^{[2] [3]}
