The Oliva Treaty of 1660, which ended the Second Northern War, does not evoke such emotions as other historical events of Polish history, for example, the 600th anniversary of the victory of Grunwald (Tannenberg) celebrated this year. One of the reasons of this situation is probably a fairly abstract way in which the treaty was conducted during an international congress and a similar, but substantially different form from The Treaty of Westphalia, although it was its 'continuation' after 12 years. In this situation, although the official name of the Oliva Treaty is the Polish-Swedish treaty, one should not be surprised that a copy of this treaty is stored in the Archives du Ministère des Affaires ètrangères (Paris) under the name: Traités Multilatèraux. It is worth to stress that this treaty covers a very wide territory, many sites (9) and the guarantors (5). The publishers of a website dedicated to European treaties - Institut für Europäische Geschichte Mainz (IEG): Europäische Friedensverträge der Vormoderne – found as many as 18 copies of this treaty in various European archives. More copies of The Oliva Treaty than enumerated above existed and still exist. Basic text Instrumentum pacis of May 3rd 1660, agreed by the commissioners, written in Latin (with errors) was prepared in five copies for Poland, Sweden, Brandenburg and The Holy Roman Empire. To this have to be added one copy for France, the lists of errors (of August 1660), the ratifications by the rulers (in Poland also by the Diet [Sejm]), and guarantors’ documents. Documents that have not been covered yet by the above mentioned project, i.e., papers of the Elector of Brandenburg commissioners, the Swedish ratification, accession to the Treaty by Leopold are stored at The Central Archives of Historical Records in Warsaw.
