Question

What reasons would the United States have to go to war with Great Britain?

Answer 1

Answer:

The first reason why the United States fought Britain in the War of 1812 was to end the practice of impressment against American sailors. The United States traded with Britain and France during the War of 1812, going against blockades in both countries. Britain impressed American sailors onto its ships in order to maintain its own merchant marine.
