Answer:
The correct answers are A, B and E.
Explanation:
The War of 1812 was a military conflict between the United States, on the one hand, and Great Britain and its North American colonies in present-day Canada, on the other, which took place from 1812 to 1815. The war started after President Jefferson - President of the US - wanted to stay out of European conflicts. He wanted to devote himself to building the new nation, doubling US territory under his rule. The United States also wanted to continue to trade unhindered with Napoleon Bonaparte's France and with other Napoleonic-controlled countries in mainland Europe. Britain did not want to recognize this neutrality right, in response to which Jefferson declared a trade embargo in 1807.
In 1812, Jefferson's successor James Madison declared war on Britain with the primary objective of breaking the Indian-British coalition and liberating Canada. During this war, on the night of August 24-25, 1814, Washington was occupied by the British and several public buildings, including the White House, were burned to the ground.
This war was finally ended with the Treaty of Ghent, which was drafted in 1814 and ratified by the Americans in 1815. English supremacy at sea was not curbed. Nor did the US succeed in conquering Canada. However, the British stopped supporting their Native American allies so that the colonization by the Americans of Native American territory could no longer be prevented by the original inhabitants.
9. The two state solution is an idea that there would be two independent and sovereign states, one for Israel and one for Palestine, and they would be based around their people and would not try to influence each other's politics or would not try to fight or anything similar and would stick to the deal when it comes to border disputes.
10. The United States firmly supports the two state solution and has historically tried to remain neutral and not take sides in the conflict, as long as human rights are preserved by both sides. There were some presidents who sometimes seemed to support more one side or the other, but the official stance is that a two state solution is the best one.
