France was an ally of USA during the American Revolutionary War. However, after the French Revolution in 1794 the French Crown was deposed and this led to tensions between USA and the revolutionary leadership. The situation deteriorated further when USA refused to pay debts to France which led to French privateers seizing and looting US trade ships sailing to Britain. As a result an undeclared war between USA, Britain and Batavian Republic with French Republic known as Quasi-War. The war continued for two years from 1798 till 1800.

The United States did not formally go to war with France in the 19th century, but there were significant tensions, particularly during the Quasi-War from 1798 to 1800. This conflict arose from issues related to trade and France's opposition to U.S. neutrality during its wars with Britain. Although it involved naval skirmishes and privateering, it was an undeclared war and did not escalate into a full-scale conflict. Overall, while relations were strained, there was no outright war between the two nations during that century.
