XYZ Affair
oops.. I forgot we have no resources welp...
OK THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!!
finally they stopped attacking our ships..
France wanted Americans to help with their revolution but America did not have any resources so US told France that they wanted to stay neutral, and France did not like that so they started attacking US ships.
Barbary Pirates
heehee.. money...
US wanted British to stop attacking US ships so they made a treaty that British stop attacking US ships and called the treaty the Jay Treaty. France saw the treaty as a threat or attack so they started attacking US ships and US sent envoys to France.
War of 1812
we shall put our differences aside and stop this nonsense.
US wanted France to stop attacking US ships, but France declined and wanted money. Then Adams went into a half-war with France and in the end, US made a treaty that they will help with the France revolution.
Embargo Act
we need to halt with trading with other nations for now..
Tripoli and other Barbary states wanted tribute from US, but US refused to pay, so Tripoli declared war on US, then both sides signed a treaty that Tripoli stopped asking for tribute and US paid 60k for ransom.
United States wanted British to stop attacking US ships and impressing sailors, but British knew US was trading with France so they ignored US, so Madison declared war. Then the British stopped attacking US ships at sea and France and Britain also stopped fighting.
fine I shall agree on your offer
Jefferson wanted to start an embargo act and halt trade with other nations. Since foreign ships couldn't get in Britain and France were at loss, so Britain agreed to stop attacking US ships. Then in the end over 55,000 sailors lost their jobs in the in the part.
