Britain practiced in act of impressment which is when American soldiers were kidnapped and Americans neutral rights were violated
Congressman William Nelson supported the War of 1812 primarily due to issues of national sovereignty and maritime rights. He believed that British interference with American shipping and impressment of American sailors violated the nation's independence and dignity. Nelson argued that the war was necessary to defend the nation’s honor and uphold its rights on the international stage.
Basically, what caused the war of 1812 was the british ignoring the rights of the Americans. And the Americans then declaring war against the british.

The British impressed American sailors, the British violated sea rights, the British blocked American ports, the British interfered with seagoing trade, and the British told the Native Americans to attack white settlers.
Most Native Americans sided with the British in the War of 1812. American settlers were encroaching on their land, and Native Americans had already been in conflict with them before the war. The British also made efforts in the peace treaty to preserve the rights of the Native Americans, however these were mostly ignored.
