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.
Answer:
I agree, but not entirely.
Explanation:
In 1607 the first English colony in America, Jamestown was created. At the beginning the colony depended in Britain for their financial and government needs. However English authorities did not have full control over their colonies in North America.
This opened the way for the colonies to take control at some extend over their economies and self government. It was only after 1700's that British authorities started to impose some control, but it was far too late. Nevertheless The English Legal system was adopted by The American Legal System.
Between 1607 and 1763 colonists of America gained more control of their economy and trade. They developed substantial trade with Native Americans, French, Dutch and Spanish.
By looking at historical evidences, it is apparent that the political and economic dependence of the Americans on the British fluctuated throughout the course of American colonial history.
Finally since the creation of the first British colony in 1607, and until the end of "The seven years' war" in 1763, American colonies gained essential control of their economy and political institutions.
