Americans were instilled with national pride after the Battle of New Orleans due to the unexpected and decisive victory against the British, who were considered a formidable military power. The battle, fought in January 1815, took place after the Treaty of Ghent had been signed, but news of the treaty had not yet reached the troops. The triumph, led by General Andrew Jackson, fostered a sense of unity and patriotism among Americans, symbolizing resilience and the ability to defend their sovereignty. This victory also contributed to a wave of nationalism that characterized the post-War of 1812 era.
