Europe was largely unmoved, and the United States fell into an economic depression. In response, Congress passed a series of non-importation acts and embargos, each time trying to force the European powers to feel the sting of losing access to American markets. The United States was put in an awkward position, unable to trade with either world power without incurring the wrath of the other. Since their war had broken out, Britain and France had both tried to restrict international trade. The seeds of war were sown in many places. Canada, then under British rule, became the primary battleground between the young republic and the old empire. The British were already waging a global war against France, one which had been raging since 1793.
The United States went to war against Great Britain. The War of 1812 brought the United States onto the world's stage in a conflict that ranged throughout the American Northeast, Midwest, and Southeast, into Canada, and onto the high seas and Great Lakes.
