One of the reasons for the war of 1812 with England was that our rights as neutrals had been violated by Engla

Question

ture or false

Answer 1

false America want to control the entire Continent. They didn't like a hostile neighbor to the north.

Answer 2

The main reasons for America declaring war on the British were:
1. American Expansionists that the Canadian Colonies were only lightly defended by the British, and some Americans believed that the majority in English speaking areas, at least, would rise up and greet an American invading army as liberators: as Thomas Jefferson suggested in 1812," the acquistion of Canada this year, as far as the neighbourhood of Quebec, will be a mere matter of marching, and will give us the experience for the attack on Halifax...."
2. The UK's refusal to surrender western forts promised to the US in the 1783 Treaty of Paris, which ended the American War of Independence, together with alligations that Britian was arming North American Indians fighting against Americans on the western frontier.
3. The boarding of American ships by the Royal Navy, on the high seas to search for alleged deserters, and forced impressment of American and naturalized American citizens as British seamen.
4. The trade embargoes by the UK and France during the Napolionic Wars, which resulted in the seizure of hundreds of American merchant ships

Answer 3

The Brits were kidnapping sailors and impressing them into service in the British Navy. That is what made the British Navy great, and angered the Americans.

Answer 4

I would say this is one reason, but at that time England did still see us as a collection of revolting colonies to be brought back into line
