A conference held Jan 1906 when France,
Germany, Britain, Russia, and
Austria-Hungary, together with the USA,
Spain, the Low Countries, Portugal, and
Sweden, met to settle the question of
Morocco. The conference was prompted by
increased German demands in what had
traditionally been seen as a French area of
influence, but it resulted in a reassertion
of Anglo-French friendship and the increased
isolation of Germany.
