In 1812, when the US invaded Canada from Detroit, the strategy used by Canada was the same as Russia had used against Napoleon just a few years before.

Canadians and their First Nations allies engaged in strategic retreat, until the enemy's supply lines were stretched beyond their limit. The supply lines were then cut, and the supplies were seized or destroyed. Then the Canadians mounted their counter-attack and drove the US forces, by then in tatters, all the way back to Detroit.

What came out of the War of 1812 settle anything?

The War in 1812 was the second failed American attempt to forcibly annex the territory known as Canada, the first having been in 1775. Ironically, that second attempt at invasion, and Canadians' successful defeat of the invasion, with British help, was crucial in igniting a discussion of nationhood between the very separate French- and English-speaking cultures that led to the creation of Canada as a country. Had there been no second invasion, it's quite likely that the various territories would have fallen under American control, one by one.

What is the meaning of invasion?

An invasion is the incursion into one body by some kind of foreign agents. The most typical example is a military invasion, when the armed forces of one sovereign state enter the territory of another sovereign state without the permission of that state, such as the invasion of Poland by Germany in 1939 or the invasion of Iraq by the United States. The entry into the human body of hostile microorganisms is also described as an invasion. We talk about a home invasion, when burglars enter a home without permission, about invasion of privacy, when outsiders intrude on something we consider private, and invasion of personal space, when someone enters the space around one's body. The entry of The Beatles and other British rock bands into the American music scene in the mid 1960s was described as "The British Invasion" as the British bands were perceived as invading an industry over which Americans had a sovereign right.


What was one result for the French and Indian war?

One significant result of the French and Indian War was the Treaty of Paris in 1763, which ended the conflict and drastically altered territorial control in North America. France ceded much of its North American territory to Britain, including Canada and lands east of the Mississippi River, while Spain received Louisiana. This expansion heightened British colonial ambitions but also increased tensions with Native American tribes, setting the stage for future conflicts. Additionally, the war's expenses contributed to Britain's decision to levy taxes on the American colonies, leading to growing discontent and ultimately the American Revolution.
