The War of 1812 (18 juin 1812 – 18 févr. 1815)
Description:
British invasions of New York, Baltimore, and New Orleans were repulsed by American troops, increasing national confidence and developing a new spirit of patriotism. The Treaty of Ghent was ratified on February 17, 1815, bringing the war to a close but leaving many of the most critical issues unsolved. Despite this, many Americans viewed the Battle of 1812 as a "second war of independence." beginning an era of partisan agreement and national pride.Added by Myra
