keluaran pertama Perjanjian Utrecht 1713 antarat Britain dan Sepanyol dalam bahasa Sepanyol (kiri) dan keluaran terkemudian dalam bahasa-bahasa Latin dan Inggeris (kanan).
Perjanjian Utrecht merupakan suatu siri perjanjian damai yang ditandatangani pihak-pihak yang terlibat dalam Perang Warisan Sepanyol di kota Utrecht, Belanda antara bulan-bulan Mac dan April 1713. Dokumen-dokumen ini membenarkan Philip, Duke Anjou mengambil tampuk kekuasaan takhta diraja Sepanyol sambil melepaskan tuntutannya terhadap takhta diraja Perancis secara kekal beserta juga beberapa jaminan tertentu bagi memastikan Perancis dan Sepanyol tidak membentuk suatu gabungan politik dengan itu mengekalkan keseimbangan kuasa-kuasa kerajaan Eropah.[1] British historian G. M. Trevelyan argues:
That Treaty, which ushered in the stable and characteristic period of Eighteenth-Century civilization, marked the end of danger to Europe from the old French monarchy, and it marked a change of no less significance to the world at large, — the maritime, commercial and financial supremacy of Great Britain.[2]
