Due to the Royal Navy's impressment of American Sailors at Sea, which included forcing American Merchants and Sailors to work for the Royal Navy, The United States Congress in 1807 passed the Embargo Act, which was a General Embargo on all foreign nations, including France and Britain which were currently fighting a war in Europe, which America wanted no part of.
