A peace agreement was signed in which John forfeited the Counties of Anjou and Poitou and the Duchy of Brittany and pay £60,000 in reparations to the French crown.
The Treaty of Chinon is a treaty signed between the king of France Philippe II and the king of England John I on September 18, 1214, in Chinon, after the defeat of the allies on July 27 in Bouvines.
During the Battle of Bouvines, Philippe II broke a terrible coalition (Kingdom of England, Flanders, Holy Roman Empire) and won a decisive victory over the Germanic emperor Othon IV of Brunswick, allied to the England King John Lackland, and the count of Flanders Ferdinand.
John I had to evacuate French territory and was forced by Pope Innocent III to accept the Treaty of Chinon, which consecrated the loss of his possessions north of the Loire: Berry and Touraine, with Maine and Anjou, returned in the royal domain, which now covered a third of the territory of present-day France.
The English only retained the Guyenne, which included the western part of the Duchy of Gascony and a small portion of southwestern Aquitaine.
