There were several immediate stated causes for the U.S. declaration of war: first, a series of trade restrictions, Orders in Council (1807), introduced by Britain to impede American trade with France, a country with which Britain was at war (the U.S. contested these restrictions as illegal under international law); second, the impressment (forced recruitment) of U.S. citizens into the Royal Navy; third, the British military support for American Indians who were offering armed resistance to the expansion of the American frontier to the Northwest. President James Madison and Congress declared what is sometimes referred to as the 2nd War of Independence, the War of 1812.

Why is bastille day a symbol of french national pride
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

it celebrates a day when the French masses rose up against oppression.

Explanation:

Bastille Day is a national festival that takes place in memory of the fall of the Bastille, the historic moment that begins the French Revolution.

The Bastille, or more precisely Bastille Saint-Antoine was a prison and a symbol of the absolute and arbitrary power of the Old Regime of Louis XVI. On July 14, 1789, the protesters took control of the fortress, being the first major intervention of the French people and breaking the absolute power of the king.

For French citizens this event is considered as the symbol of the battle against oppression and hence the importance of the date and the motivation for the whole celebration.

In this period the acclaimed principles of Freedom, Equality and Fraternity - Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité, the motto of the Revolution - have so far surpassed the aristocratic, monarchical and religious ideals towards the conquest of new forms of government grounded in democracy.

It was with the French Revolution that the absolutist monarchy, ruler of the country for centuries, was abolished.
