Quasi War with France (1798-1800) French Rev. overthrows gov’t U.S. refuses to pay war debt, claims debt was to previous regime French begin to seize and harass U.S. ships Many Americans want full scale war with France (still angry over XYZ Affair) Adams wants to continue Washington’s neutrality and does not feel U.S. can defeat France Adams refuses to ask for a declaration of war U.S. and France engage in small naval battles Approx. 50 deaths on each side

Only place worse maybe @NBCNews, @CBSNews, @ABC and @CNN.
