Detailed explanation-1: -The two leading causes of the war were the British Orders-in-Council, which limited American trade with Europe, and impressment, the Royal Navy’s practice of taking seamen from American merchant vessels to fill out the crews of its own chronically undermanned warships.
Detailed explanation-2: -The United States invaded Canada in two wars: Invasion of Canada (1775), American Revolutionary War. Invasion of Canada (1812), War of 1812.
Detailed explanation-3: -Canadians endured repeated invasions and occasional occupations, but each invasion ultimately ended with an American withdrawal. The Royal Navy and British Army supported by Canadian regulars, Canadian militia, and First Peoples warriors, successfully defended Canada.
Detailed explanation-4: -Canada Becomes A Nation The War of 1812 made Canada a nation. While Canada would not gain its independence from Great Britain until July 1, 1867, the War of 1812 melded a cluster of colonists that had different backgrounds together as one nationality.
