The Treaties of Orebro were a significant diplomatic outcome of the early 19th century, ending the conflicts between Great Britain and both Russia and Sweden. These treaties were concluded amid the wider geopolitical upheaval resulting from the Napoleonic Wars. As Britain sought to counterbalance the expanding influence of France across Europe, the conflicts with Russia and Sweden became prominent as both nations were involved in various alliances that threatened British interests. The Anglo-Russian War (1807-1812) arose from Britain's opposition to Russia's alliance with France, while the Anglo-Swedish War (1810-1812) was largely driven by Sweden's attempts to reclaim territories and reassert its sovereignty in the wake of the Napoleonic influence. For both wars, an interim period of negotiation and military engagements led to eventual treaties that redefined borders and relationships in the region.

The signing of the treaties occurred in Orebro, Sweden, and were significant in re-establishing peace and normalizing relations that were frayed by war. The agreements allowed for a cessation of hostilities and provided frameworks for future engagements between the nations. Following the treaties, hostilities ceased, and Britain focused on the war against Napoleon, while Russia found itself in a position to redirect efforts towards its northwestern frontiers. This contributed to a more stable geopolitical landscape that facilitated trade and diplomacy in Northern Europe.
