The battle of New Orleans between the United States and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, which occurred between December 23, 1814 and January 8, 1815, was the greatest battle of the Anglo-American War of 1812.
At the end of 1814 a British fleet of more than 50 ships sent by the general Edward Pakenham, sailed to the interior of the Gulf of Mexico and prepared to attack New Orleans. The American general Andrew Jackson, commander of the North American army that was in the southwest of the country, had composed his regiment mainly of militiamen and volunteers, with which he fought against the British who suddenly attacked his position on January 8, 1815. The troops of Jackson effectively barricaded himself behind the fortifications, while the English hosts were exposed, the struggle being brief and ending in a decisive victory for the Americans, thus achieving the British withdrawal and the death of General Pakenham.
The battle may be considered extemporaneous since the Treaty of Ghent, which ended the war, had been signed last December, but the report had been slow to arrive. The victory nevertheless raised the national morale, improving the reputation of Jackson to the level of a hero, that served as platform for his way to the presidency.
