7. A. More Trouble With Britain (p. 373)
The Embargo Act and other measures did little to force France and Britain to respect the neutral rights of the United States.
British ships continued to attack American merchant ships and seize American sailors.
In March 1811, President Madison cut off U.S. trade with Great Britain and the two nations drifted closer to war.

8. B. Native American Resistance (pp. 373-374)
Settlers on the frontier knew the British were supplying Native Americans with guns.
Around 1808, a Shawnee chief named Tecumseh and his brother “the Prophet,” a shaman (religious leader), began to form a confederation of all the Native Americans east of the Mississippi River.

9. C. Battle of Tippecanoe (p. 374)
The governor and military commander of the Indiana territory, William Henry Harrison, feared the growing strength of the Indian confederation.
He led an assault on the Native Americans in what is known as the Battle of Tippecanoe (1811).
This marked the beginning of a long, deadly war between Native Americans and white settlers on the frontier.

10. D. A Call for War (p. 375)
Americans now had two reasons to be angry at Britain: the continuing trouble at sea and conflicts on the frontier.
People who urged war with Britain became known as war hawks.
Westerners wanted to conquer Canada to insure peace on the frontier; Southerners wanted to obtain Florida from Spain, Britain’s ally.

11. E. War is Declared (p. 375)
By 1812, the British were so desperate for trade items that they decided to repeal the orders for interference in Americans shipping.
But before President Madison learned that the British government had changed its policy, he gave in to the demands of the war hawks.
On June 18, 1812, he asked Congress to declare war against Britain.
