1 maio 1807 ano - Embargo Act

Descrição:

Jefferson's embargo act essentially blocked all U.S. ports to trading with foreign nations, especially Great Britain. This created economic hardship for American farmers and manufacturers.

The embargo greatly effected American and regional culture by isolating America from foreign trade. While it didn't economically benefit Americans, it fostered isolationist ideals and values that later became very crucial to American culture.
