The Embargo Act of 1807 primarily aimed to pressure Britain into respecting American shipping rights by prohibiting American trade with all foreign nations. However, one effect that was not seen in Britain was a significant economic crisis; Britain was able to find alternative trade partners and sources for goods, which mitigated the impact of the embargo. Additionally, the Act did not lead to a change in British policy regarding impressment of American sailors, as Britain continued its practices despite the embargo. Ultimately, the Act hurt the American economy more than it affected Britain.
