War of 1812
1809-1810 Non-Intercourse Act
This act maintained the embargo only against Britain and France, but did not ban trade with other European countries. Since trade could be conducted indirectly in this manner, the act was largely futile. It was also limited by its express deadline, that enforcement would end with the conclusion of the next session of Congress.
In the War of 1812, the United States took on the greatest naval power in the world, Great Britain, in a conflict that would have an immense impact on the young country's future. Causes of the war included British attempts to restrict U.S. trade, the Royal Navy's impressment of American seamen and America's desire to expand its territory. The United States suffered many costly defeats at the hands of British, Canadian and Native American troops over the course of the War of 1812, including the capture and burning of the nation's capital, Washington, D.C., in August 1814. Nonetheless, American troops were able to repulse British invasions in New York, Baltimore and New Orleans, boosting national confidence and fostering a new spirit of patriotism. The ratification of the Treaty of Ghent on the 17th of February, 1815, ended the war. Many in the United States celebrated the War of 1812 as a "second war of independence," beginning an era of partisan agreement and national pride.

A 1833 copy of the Colonization of Free Black Americans in Africa
Was founded by groups otherwise opposed to each other on the issue of slavery. The American Colonization Society (ACS), also known as the American Society for Colonizing the Free People of Color in the United States, emerged in 1816 as a national organization dedicated to promoting the manumission of the enslaved and the settlement of free blacks in West Africa, specifically in the colony of Liberia. The ACS transported approximately 12,000 blacks to Liberia over the course of its existence.
