Naval blockade
Abraham Lincoln created a naval blockade to prevent the south from being able to take part in trading activities. This was an attempt by the president to bring about a peaceful end to the Civil War. The south challenged the blockade by building torpedo boats to attack the naval ships involved in the blockade.

Britain imposed a naval blockade on France in 1802 primarily to restrict French trade and military supplies, particularly as tensions between the two nations were escalating. The blockade aimed to weaken France economically and prevent the resurgence of French power following the Revolutionary Wars. Additionally, Britain sought to protect its own maritime interests and maintain its naval supremacy in Europe. The blockade was part of a broader strategy to counter the threat posed by Napoleon Bonaparte's expansionist ambitions.
