Best Answer

Baltimore Maryland. The fort stood up to British Naval bombardment, and because it was there, the British Navy could not land British soldiers on Baltimore Maryland. The British Army tried to outflank Fort McHenry, but, they were defeated on land, so a water attack was the only other way to attack Baltimore. When Fort McHenry was stand standing, Flag Flying, the British Navy sailed away.
