Treaty of Paris: Tough-o-Meter

    Treaty of Paris: Tough-o-Meter

      (8) Snow Line

      Nobody likes reading official language from the 18th century. Nobody. Not even 18th-century lawyers…and those are the people who drafted this dang thing.

      But as far as documents from the time go, the Treaty of Paris isn't so bad. The language is relatively easy to parse. Our tip? Read it out loud, go slow, and remember that every word needs to be there. (We also rewarded ourselves with a gummi bear after each successfully completed sentence, but you do you.)
