This Peace Treaty was signed at the Saxon capital of Dresden between Austria, Saxony and Prussia, concluding the Second Silesian War. Under the terms of the 'Treaty of Dresden', Austria was forced to adhere to the terms of the earlier 'Treaty of Breslau', ceding Silesia to Prussia. Silesia's flourishing mining and textile industries had made it the richest of all the Habsburgs' Austrian provinces, and it was chiefly its wealth that tempted Frederick II (the Great) of Prussia to wrestle Silesia from the Habsburg heiress Maria Teresa, in the War of the Austrian Succession (1740–48). In total there were three Silesian Wars fought between Frederick the Great's Prussia and Maria Theresa's Austria, all three of which ended in Prussian control of Silesia.
