In response in 1814 a british army invaded washington D.C they burned many buildings including the capitol
Madison made a deal with france and britain if they stop attacking american ships they will stop trading with there enemy
Do we have a deal?
Fine
The British impressment of american sailors forcing them to do there work
On january 18, 1815 7,500 british troops marched to new orleans but soon they met up with jackson's troops and soon it turned into a sea of blood with british troops having to flee
Listen buddy you work for me now
LET ME GO!
So then in June,18 1812 Madison choose to abandon isolationism and declare war against Great Britain Madison signs the declaration into law and the War of 1812 begins.
The Battle of new orleans was the greatest american victory of the war.It was also totally unnecessary Two weeks earlier british and american signed a peace treaty
I DECLARE WAR!!!!
WE GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE OR WERE DEAD!!!!
Sure?
I'm sorry for burning down your capitol and killing half of your men can you please make a treaty and forgive us
