The British "paper blockade", a demand that every vessel heading Europeans ports should have a British license and be inspected by them, was not well accepted by the Americans. They were earning too many profits to be inclined to follow any side, France of United Kingdom, of the Napoleonic war. Also, the Americans saw this practice as an assault on their dignity and honor.

The first big event following this practice was the Chesapeake-Leopard affair, where one merchant US ship was destroyed by the British warship Leopard, with the excuse of the search for deserters of the Royal Navy. After this, legislators created the Embargo Act in 1806 stopping all exports of American goods and restraining ships from leaving for foreign ports.

Answer:

The ancient Babylonian king ruled with military and diplomatic finesse—and he also knew a thing or two about self-promotion.

Explanation:

More than 3,800 years after he took power, the ancient Babylonian king Hammurabi is best remembered for the Code of Hammurabi which was inscribed on human-sized stone pillars that he placed in the towns of his realm.

But the system of 282 laws was just one of the achievements of a leader who turned Babylon, a city-state located 60 miles south of modern-day Baghdad, into the dominant power of ancient Mesopotamia.

During his reign, which lasted from 1792 to his death in 1750 B.C., Hammurabi in many ways also served as a model for how to combine military power, diplomatic finesse and political skill to build and control an empire that stretched from the Persian Gulf inland for 250 miles along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.
