The statement that is NOT true about the Treaty of Paris of 1783 is:

"The Spanish offered Florida as a token of thanks for defeating the British."

In reality, Spain regained Florida through negotiations, but it was not offered as a token of thanks for defeating the British. The Treaty of Paris primarily recognized American independence from Britain and delineated the borders of the new nation.
