Question

In what ways did the war between France and Britain cause problems for the United States

Answer 1

Answer:

The United States relied on French and British trade for the economy. Because the USA was young, it didnt have very much time to develop local industries, the economy was not prepared for the split with Britain when it occurred. So once the British and French went to war, French and British ships would blockade one another, and cease trade. This eventually led to the XYZ affair which was a catastrophy for the USA.
