Best Answer

One of the first actions for the participants during a war is to embargo all trade to your opponent. Trade from America to Europe had to go by sea and Britain, (the main enemy of Napoleon), had the largest navy, by a long way.

Napoleon was using other European countries to place a trade embargo on Britain, so it was only right for Britain to do the same, which hurt trade to and from America. This was especially so between 1812 and 1815 when America declared war on Britain and her dependencies.
