The Continental System.
There was no physical blockade of British ports by the French under Napoleon. What occurred was a trade war with competing embargos, begun by Napoleon in a plan to weaken Britain economically. France did not have the ships to enforce the announced blockade. The so-called "Continental system" prohibited other nations from trading with England. The British responded by blockading French ports. Caught in the middle were countries like the US, who only wished to have commerce wherever it was welcome. When Russia finally withdrew from the system in 1812, Napoleon invaded, eventually taking Moscow but losing almost his entire army.
The Continental System.
The Continental System was a form of economic warfare instituted by Napoleon Bonaparte in an attempt to isolate Britain and disrupt its trade with other European countries. It required European nations controlled by Napoleon to embargo British goods, leading to economic hardships for those involved.
