This so unfaired. dis dude be like: Why did Thomas Jefferson order the embargo against Great Britain in 1807?
I answer it:

I know this be like 2 years late but, you answered your own question, man.
"against Great Britain in 1807" like but really the answer is because the U. S had barly anything to use against French, and Britian besides trade. The war was between Britian & France, and because we traded with both, one got mad at the other, causing an AT&T argument. Jk of course but if we traded with French, it got Britian mad, if we did vice-versa, the other got mad. So
Explanation:
TJ thought it would cause the war to stop, and both of them to battle eachother of whom is better at bribing us, or to win our trading over basically, if that makes sense. Now, I don't know why I put so much effort into this answer, like you probaly not even active on , but whatever.

he said:


The main reason why Thomas Jefferson ordered an embargo against Great Britain in 1807 was due to Britain was disrespecting the US by taking sailors and forcing them to join the British Navy. In 1807, President Thomas Jefferson signed into law the Embargo Act.
