The War of 1812 was caused by the tensions between France and Great Britain due to the French Revolutionary Wars. The consequence was that both France and Great Britain intended to restrict commercial maritime rights from the U.S. with each country. In general, U.S. did not consider this to be fair, as they intended to continue trading with France as they did before any conflict.
