The United States went to war with England in 1812 because England refused to treat the United States as a neutral country. England often interfered with American freedom of the seas. The English navy impressed, or kidnapped, men off American ships and forced them to join the English navy. English ships often hindered American fishing off the coast of Newfoundland. English ships also took cargo off American ships headed for France. English interference was not limited to the sea. England still had several forts in the American territory and Canada. Soldiers from these forts encouraged Indians to attack American settlers.

The war of 18012 took place, mainly because England did not respect the US positioning between it and France. This is because both were in conflict, but the USA, which wished to maintain trade relations with the two nations, maintained a neutral stance, so that trade between these countries would not be harmed. However, trade was hampered in any way, as England arrested American ships that were intended to trade with France and even American sailors hung.
