Why did the impressment occur in the 1800s?

The impressment occured because pay was better in the merchant fleet than in the British Navy, and conditions were less brutal. Captains of the British Navy were always looking for replacements, and if they could not fill their company at a home port by recruitment they would send the "press gangs" to attack and grab sailors to work on British ships for free. Between 1803 and 1812 6,000 American sailors were impressed by the British.
