The War of 1812 was the USA versus England. England kept taking USA sailors off American ships and impressing (drafting) them to fight a War against Napoleon and France. We declared War on England and lost most of the battles, except the Siege of Ft. McHenry, Baltimore Maryland the Battle of New Orleans and a few other battles. The British burned Washington DC to the ground (After the Americans burnt a British city in Canada to the ground first). The USA signed a Peace treaty with England, but, for the most part, it was a War in which the USA had a tendency to get beaten by the English. We got our National Anthem from the War; The Star Spangled Banner, by American lawyer Francis Scott Key. However, it is a War that most Americans would like to forget.
