3 Problems With Foreign Powers

4 Jefferson’s Foreign Policy
Jefferson advised the U.S. to be friendly with all nations, but not to ally with any T.J. wanted to keep the U.S. separated from foreign problems But the expansion of US borders and the growth of our trade industry brought conflict with other nations

5 Britain and France still at War
1805, Britain & France tried to limit U.S. shipping to Europe Neither side wanted us to send supplies to their enemy Both sides began to seize U.S. ships Between 1803 & 1812 the British impressed about 6,000 U.S. sailors

6 Jefferson didn’t want to go to war
Heavily criticized for not asking congress for a declaration of war after a U.S. vessel was attacked right off the coast of Virginia.

7 Jefferson Prevents War
To avoid bloodshed T.J. asked congress to pass legislation that would stop foreign trade Congress passed the Embargo Act of 1807 U.S. ships couldn’t sail to foreign ports U.S. ports closed to the British

8 The Embargo Act hurt the U.S. more than Britain and France
Hurt Jefferson politically Jefferson lost the election of 1808 James Madison became president

9 Trouble in the Indiana Territory
Thousands of Americans settlers moved west They believed that the British were still stirring up trouble with N.A.s Tecumseh (Shawnee Chief) tried to unite the different tribes to prevent the loss of his land His efforts were halted after the Battle of Tippecanoe

10 Tecumseh and his warriors found refuge with the British in Canada
This enraged many Westerners. Henry Clay was among many of the Westerners who called for war with the British They were known as War Hawks They wanted British aid to N.A.s to stop & the British out of Canada

11 War of 1812

12 The War Begins Britain wanted to avoid war with U.S. – still at war with France They announced that they would no longer interfere with U.S. shipping, but the mail didn’t reach the U.S. state department in time. Madison’s request for war was approved June 18, 1812

13 The Dem.Rep.s that were in charge had reduced the military to less than 7,000 soldiers and 16 naval ships The military was poorly equipped with little training

14 First Phase of the War Protect the N.W.
Despite the size of the Navy – they were the fastest warships on the sea Lots of experience fighting Mediterranean pirates The most important Naval victory took place on Lake Erie where the U.S. had been building a fleet Commodore Perry was in charge of the fleet and commander of the Lawrence After encountering the British he reported back: “We have met the enemy and they are ours”

15 The Naval victories on Lake Erie force the British to retreat into Canada
U.S. General Harrison and his troops followed the British into Canada and defeated them in the Battle of the Thames. This ended the British threat in the N.W. Tecumseh died in the Battle of the Thames (crushing blow to N.A. resistance)

16 Second Phase of the War 1814 – The British had defeated the French and now focused their entire force on the U.S. The British sacked the state capitol, burned down the Capitol building and the president’s mansion Dolly Madison – stayed behind to save some important artifacts from the house

17 After burning the Capitol, the British turned their attention to Fort McHenry on the Baltimore coast
The British bombed the fort relentlessly, but when they move their troops in to take the fort, the British were defeated Francis Scott Key was detained on a British ship in the harbor where he watched the battle Major George Armistead ordered the largest flag they had be flow so the British would have “no difficulty seeing it.”

18 In the South, the British moved on New Orleans
The American victory on Lake Champlain prevented the British from their plan to isolate New England. In the South, the British moved on New Orleans Gen. Andrew Jackson’s defense of N.O. made him a hero The battle took place two weeks after the Treaty of Ghent was signed

19 The Legacy of the War There wasn’t a clear winner
No land changed hands American patriotism is increased U.S. manufacturing increased Weakened N.A. resistance
