"british removing seamen from US ships"
Took me a while to get it 👌🏾
haha I got it of the bat. I have Austin Powers to thank for that.
Dr. Evil says: "It's long and hard and full of seamen."
..."and many of them for British porn"
I'm impressed!
"The British were also removing semen from US ships" lol, so that's why the war started.
The Brits just could not get enough seamen
+Valenteen I was like some1 has to say that :):)
Damn. Those Brits just couldn't make enough, but then again, the Americans were masturbating like hell.
In that case tho both parties wouks be happy
GIVE ME CUMMIES OR GIVE ME DEATH
The US did achieve one of its objectives though: In the Treaty of Ghent, the British promised not to arm the Native Americans from Canada or even to trade with them. This allowed the US to easily expand westward.
In the war of 1812 the US achieved a major objective, the UK lost little of real value and the various Indian tribes who lived west of the US lost everything.
Survival of the fittest 🤙
So what I'm hearing is, No one won. They sort of said fuck the war, I got better stuff to do
+Lane Thornton That;s one way of putting it. But if they had taken parts of the US it would have allowed the Europeans to demand more territory from the defeated French (something the British were hoping to avoid).
Pretty much
+Lane Thornton If anyone actually won this war, it was the British
+Domiedave99 hehehe,i s that bitch still whining like all brit s do?
***** lol is he back again? the pussy has blocked me xD
I was always taught this about this particular war: We (the USA) fought the British. Canada won. The Native Americans lost.
yeah its british propaganda
@@franknwogu4911 it’s the truth
That moment your trained army cant defeat Canadian Militia and natives but can defeat British regulars
Most US soldiers at the time were anept.
The US army was always retarded. That moment you build fortifications all over the middle east to fight the talibans, when they are fighting in a guerrilla style.
you are literally doing what advantages your ennemie
Adversary DOT-Communist Im talking about the Iraq-Afghan Fighting.
The Tactics of the US was to build fortification in strategic points along the landscape and in towns to "suppress the Talibans". But sadly it was as effective as a cavalry charge against a machine gun, Why
The Talibans Fight in guerrilla fighting, The best way to counter Fortification.
They made the same mistake like in Vietnam, Fighting a ww2 style war against people who hide in plain sight and wait for the proper time to strike
I never said Foreign military bases was retarded, That's the oldest trick in the book for controlling a stable region.
Im simply pointing out that the USA have the worst military tacticians on the planet
Hot Communist A-10 Warthog OmFG your right
I love how they named it the year the war started
What else were they going to call a complicated , bizarre scuffle?
This war is listed as a stalemate for a reason... so firstly, lets look at the facts:
The U.S economy depended on the British Empire for its exports in the early 1800s (at 47%). The cease of Britain's trade with America paired with a naval blockade (blocking U.S from trading with U.K/France) crippled the U.S economy during the Napoleonic Wars. Impressing Americans into the Royal Navy, posing a threat to an invasion via Canada, and supporting Native Americans to prevent expansion; the British were a seemingly permanent thorn in America's side.
America's goal was to dislodge that thorn. To show that it was not to bow to an increasingly powerful Britain. Britain wanted to keep America east of the Appalachians, keeping them weak. America wanted to expand in all directions (including Canada), making themselves powerful. The compromise at the end of the war was that in exchange for Britain leaving America alone to prosper, the U.S would allow Canada to exist whilst submitting to British naval domination. Each nation had their security concerns and those concerns were acknowledged and finally remedied in Treaty of Ghent. America is justified in celebrating the outcome of this war, likewise Canada.
As a British-American dual national, I can tell you that there is no bias in what I wrote.
A thoroughly neutral analysis.
Tom Flynn you summed it up perfectly, too bad most are too biased to do the same
The Lore Lord yeah. Canadians think they won. American’s think they won. In reality both sides won some and both sides lost some
Britain won. America failed in all of their war aims.
I was so confused at first when you said they removed all seamen. Semen
Theres an awful lot of Americans thinking they won this war let me clear things up, neither side won lmao
Wrong, the bankers won.
Shea Oconnor Well, dear Bonehead Shea, let me ask you, did the US attain their stated goal to take over Canada? I think not. And if when you go to war, you do not get what you went after, you lose! Let me ask you another: Why do you feel it's necessary to use profanity in your reply? Perhaps it is, as you Yankees like to add aggrandizement to all your claims as the "Best country in the world," you don't like to admit your losses. One more: Where did you get your education? (?)
I don't see any but just Brits
Jackson won.
And nothing was accomplished accept the national claim of sovereignty.
This isn't a video on the Korean war.
full disclosure im British but I am objective about history, however I really can't see why some Americans think that they won this war, they did not achieve any of their objectives and they totally failed in their attempts to gain ground in Canada, America would eventually go on to become a Lion but at this stage it was a Lion cub that still has a lot to learn, us Brits are happy to chat about every war in our history win, lose or draw but Americans seem to have a very hard time talking about the ones they lost, but most historians agree that this was a loss for young America
+James Marsden The War of 1812 along with the Vietnam War are two of the main conflicts that America has lost but still won't accept it, they have lost others as well, but those two in particular are probably the ones they're most known for.
+George Reggie Had the war ended with the signing of the peace treaty (not the same thing as it's ratification), and had a desire for Canada been the goal of the war, then I would agree. But all three objectives of the war were accomplished. There are no longer any red coats stomping through American ports looking for deserters as they wondered why the towns rioted against them, there are no longer any Federalists on the ballot, and you can walk through Ohio without getting tamahawked. During the peace negotiations, the British refused to change their stance on impressment, despite the end of their war with Napoleon. If born a British subject, then you're always a subject, regardless of whether you become a US citizen or not. The loss at New Orleans had a large psychological effect on that generation of Britons and they reversed their stance on impressment within a year after the war ended when Americans threatened more bloodshed if they didn't stop. Since the US victory was a belated one, I can understand why a lot of people don't see it at first glance.
+Mansplain Blane yeah you make some very good points there, I do think the USA overestimated how welcome they were going to be in Canada though, they expected Canadians would be in full support of them, they would later make the same mistake in Vietnam and again in Iraq, it seems to be America has a habit of overestimating how much the citizens of other countries love them.
+George Reggie. As do the English. Not GB, but The English. India, America, Africa, Asia are seen like little children that misbehave but deep down love and need mommy, if we can only convince them of our love by acting like complete asses to the locals, "we'll win the hearts and minds."
Yep, that's an Anglo-American vice for sure. Pax Romana.
JSE Gadgets Actually for the most part we successfully stoped your support of rebellious native Tribes, and left a decent size dent in your navy. We didn't win the war but neither did you.
I wasn’t taught that anyone won. I was taught that there was a war and America was like “Yeah, okay, I’m done. Canada you can keep your land.” And Canada was like “Alright, thanks mate.”
The End.
Canada won by keeping their land. America lost by failing to take the land. America wasn’t like “ you can keep your land...” they just realized they couldn’t win.
@@andrewholic3204 did American sailors stop getting conscripted in the British navy en masse? I believe so, sounds like we got something out of it, as well as freer trade in the years following
@@ssj4gogeta77 Sure you got something out of it, but it still isn't a win.
@@andrewholic3204 The outcome of the war was a draw. Britain kept Canada and the US stopped the impressment of sailors into the British navy, which was the main cause of the war for the US. People say the US lost because they failed to take Canada which was a secondary goal once the war started and because the US had more casualties. However Britain did agree to stop impressment and leave America alone. So in the end everyone achieved something.
@@ssj4gogeta77 accurate estimates suggest no more than 500 sailors were ever taken
As I American I don’t see why we can’t admit we lost a war in the early 1800’s
Thx bro I’m from Canada we did win you are so smart bro
Stephen Jenkins that’s because the Canadian government doesn’t give a shit, it’s like when you give away something that really doesn’t matter, so the annoying kid will shut the fuck up about it
We didn’t lose the war it ended on a stalemate.
His story is certain a lie. Who built all the star forts? Who were the Tartarians?
@John Coletti I agree

@@williamrance5086 U SLAVED THEM FOR A BIT OF TEA???
We burnt down the American presidential house in the war of 1812.
A friend of yours. We ? Are you British ?
Best thing we have ever done
Long story short the War of 1812 was for nothing and neither side won
Both sides won and both sides lost.
Calling it a stalemate would be inaccurate.
Britain was freely taking people off of American vessels to fight in their wars, so America got real pissed off and began a non-intercourse trade agreement.
This wasn't very helpful so they re-wrote the law saying whoever (Britain or France) lifted trade restrictions first, they would resume the non-intercourse trade agreement with the opposing side.
Napoleon acted on it of course, so America sided with France, and thus the rest of the events of the war unfolded.
Canada was an objective because it was Britain's colony and was right next door.
America after all didn't have much of a navy except for pirates and trading vessels.
The reason Americans believe they won, was because America originally just wanted to be left alone.
Taking Canada and things like that were just a smaller objective to the bigger objective, and that was to be free of Britain's tyranny.
America was able to remain America, keeping their sailors without taking Canada and Britain defeated Napoleon and kept Canada, thus both sides won, and both sides lost.
Jimmy Durex could have given an explanation instead of just saying nope your wrong. And he’s not saying they just won. He’s saying the US both won and lost. Some objectives were met and others weren’t, same for the British.
The Indians lost.
Jimmy Durex I’m not even from the US...so I didn’t learn from US history books. All I was saying was that it is kinda condescending to just tell someone there wrong and not educate them as to why. But after your comment I’m assuming your just a dick.
No Britain won. Deny it and be honest. Next you'll be saying you won in Vietnam.
So basically Brittan where the good guys.
They impressed a lot of American ships so not really
@@antidemonrat2489 Britain impressed a few thousand mostly British born sailors. On the flip side Americans had millions of slaves and was actively carrying out a genocide on the indigenous population. Swings and roundabouts.
@@LiamE69 h8r ass 😂 good guys and bad guys is childish AF 😂
Realistically the war was more favourable to the British then the Americans
Bullet-Tooth Tony take a look at New Orleans
Luka Bazooka ? I am a Canadian living in Canada. We won mate.
No the battle of New Orleans. More of a tie British and Canadians burned down the White House and the Americans wiped the floor with the British in New Orleans
I’m fast As fuk boi well, despite New Orleans, the British did do battles after that major clash and did harass the Americans more up north
What when we were fighting Boney too! Madison started the war because he thought the Brits would be tied down in Europe fighting him.
He declared war in order to get re-elected the sneak.
Ahhh, communication distance. How it managed to create situations like New Orleans battled after peace treaty.
America tried invading Canada and they were stopped. I don’t see how this is seen as a draw?
Well both sides of the conflict kinda got what they wanted in some small way. The war basically settled security concerns for both nations, but neither got everything they set out to achieve.
The British Empire pushed US Soldiers back to the Canadian border.... but at the end of the conflict no territorial gains were made by either side. In fact, the UK had to concede to US soverignty and leave US Shipping alone at the end of the war.
@@ganthore Britain was only interested in stopping American shipping supporting Napoleon, in the same way the USA gets really tetchy about countries trading with Iran or N Korea today. With that war over the blockade and impressment would end anyway. Britain didn't blockade for fun, but because the USA was supporting a murderous tyrant rampaging through Europe.
@@LiamE69 England quickly learned their lesson too. Don't mess with Ironside (USS Constitution) US ships. Shortly after the war of 1812 USA officially joined the World Superpower club. Today remains the sole superpower on Earth.
@@ganthore It was a long time later that the USA became one of the great powers. It became a great power on the back of its industrial might which greatly expanded through the 19th century. But even by the outbreak of WWI the US had little in the way of an army and its navy was no match for the RN. By the end of WWI, things were very different. Britain, France, Russia, Germany and Austria-Hungary had torn each other apart and become deeply indebted whilst the USA had expanded militarily and industrially and had not suffered the ravages of war to any great extent. With the second world war further weakening countries in Europe and basically ending the British Empire, the USA and Russia emerged as superpowers but only the USA really had the industrial base to support that long term. For a while we have seen the USA alone as a superpower but we are now seeing the inevitable rise of China to that status.
As for the naval part of the war of 1812 having your entire country blockaded for years is maybe a bigger thing than the odd ship doing well in the odd engagement.
No one won the War of 1812, it was a stalemate. The only thing gained by both sides was respect for each other and in my opinion this sparked a great alliance that still last to this day.
America lost. Their goal was to annex Canada (which wasn't touched on in this video) and instead they got their whitehouse burned down. They declared the war and couldn't accomplish what they set out to. That's a loss
+Scottie Paterson If it was an American loss, why does the UK agree it was a draw?
+Scottie Paterson Ignore these Americans.
I agree with this guy
+RosenbergerProductions The UK didn't agree that is was a tie. We named it a stalemate because we had the knowledge that the US couldn't launch a serious attack against the Canadian frontiers now we had our full army at our disposal, we knew that we had no valid grounds for an invasion of US territory and so we looked to end the war to prevent more lives being wasted.
they should of let the British have Detroit.

Great job! Well told!
The war of 1812 could've ended quite differently if Britain wasnt so occupied w/the situation on the european continent. Due to having such a vast overseas empire Britain has many times had to agree to a treaty in order to fight wars closer to home, the various Indian mutinies & American revolution forced britain to change strategey in order to win wars that were closer to home. If Britain were able to have given its undivided attention to any of these conflicts 1 @ a time they very well may have taken back the United States into the empire
Britain seemed to have too many irons in the fire during this period. Constantly going to war ,seeking to expand their empire all over the globe.
Their desertion in the military problem was a result of this. Men tired of fighting
1812 also could've ended quite differently if the United states was properly prepared for it. Considering how well we did with a relatively very small and underequipped army, as well as the nation being pretty divided in the beginning on whether or not we should actually go to war; It could be very possible that we would have achieved the annexation of Canada. Whether or not we could actually assimilate them into our nation and culture (and not have them split off due to resistance and uprisings) is debatable, though.
Nope. America was too big and already defeated them prior so their aura of invincibility was gone. It would have been bloody no doubt but no way they would have been able to reclaim the newly formed United States of America.
So this means that this was a stale mate with no clear winner

*Copy pasta time*
The War of 1812 was a military conflict that lasted from June 18, 1812 to February 18, 1815, fought by the United States of America against Great Britain, its North American colonies, and its North American Indian allies. Historians in the United States and Canada see it as a war in its own right, but Europeans sometimes see it as a minor theatre of the Napoleonic Wars, as it was caused by issues related to that war (especially the Continental System). By the war's end in early 1815 the key issues had been resolved and peace came with no boundary changes.
The United States declared war for several reasons, including trade restrictions brought about by the British war with France, the impressment of as many as 10,000 American merchant sailors into the Royal Navy,[5] British support for Native American tribes fighting American settlers on the frontier, outrage over insults to national honor during the Chesapeake-Leopard Affair, and possible American interest in annexing British territory.[6] The primary British war goal was to defend their North American colonies, although they also hoped to set up a neutral Indian buffer state in the Midwest.
The war was fought in three theatres. First, at sea, warships and privateers of each side attacked the other's merchant ships, while the British blockaded the Atlantic coast of the United States and mounted large raids in the later stages of the war. Second, land and naval battles were fought on the U.S.-Canadian frontier. Third, large-scale battles were fought in the Southern United States and Gulf Coast. At the end of the war, both sides signed and ratified the Treaty of Ghent and, in accordance with the treaty, returned occupied land, prisoners of war and captured ships (though neither side returned the other's warships due to frequent re-commissioning upon capture) to its pre-war owner and resumed friendly trade relations without restriction.
With the majority of its land and naval forces tied down in Europe fighting the Napoleonic Wars, the British used a predominantly defensive strategy in the Provinces of Upper and Lower Canada. Early victories over poorly-led U.S. armies, such as in the Battle of Queenston Heights, demonstrated that the conquest of the Canadas would prove more difficult than anticipated. Despite this, the U.S. was able to inflict serious defeats on Britain's Native American allies, ending the prospect of an Indian confederacy and an independent Native American state in the Midwest under British sponsorship. U.S. forces were also able to make several gains and score victories on the Canadian frontier; taking control of Lake Erie in 1813, seizing western parts of Upper Canada. However, a large-scale U.S. attempt to capture Montreal was repulsed in November 1813. Despite the major U.S. victory at Chippawa on July 5, 1814, serious U.S. attempts to fully conquer Upper Canada were ultimately abandoned following the bloody Battle of Lundy's Lane on July 25, 1814. The U.S. then fell back roughly 30 km (19 mi) from Lundy's Lane to Fort Erie, where they withstood a siege for several months. The British eventually withdrew, but as winter set in, the Americans demolished the fort and fell back across the Niagara.
In April 1814, with the defeat of Napoleon, the British adopted a more aggressive strategy, sending larger invasion armies and tightening their naval blockade. However, with the end of the Napoleonic Wars in Europe, both governments were eager for a return to normality and peace negotiations began in Ghent in August 1814. In the Deep South, General Andrew Jackson destroyed the military strength of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend. In September 1814, the British won the Battle of Hampden, allowing them to occupy eastern Maine, and the British victory at the Battle of Bladensburg in August 1814 allowed them to capture and burn Washington, D.C. They were repulsed, however, in an attempt to take Baltimore and Fort Bowyer, and during their assault at Fayal. An American victory in September 1814 at the Battle of Plattsburgh repulsed the British invasions of New York, which, along with pressure from merchants on the British government, prompted British diplomats to drop their demands at Ghent for an independent native buffer state and territorial claims that London previously sought. Given that it took six weeks for ships to cross the Atlantic, news of the peace treaty did not arrive before the British suffered a major defeat at New Orleans in January 1815.[7]
In the United States, late victories over invading British armies at the battles of Plattsburg, Baltimore (inspiring the United States national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner") and New Orleans produced a sense of euphoria over a "second war of independence" against Britain.[8][9] The war ended on a high note for Americans, winning the final engagements of the war and bringing an "Era of Good Feelings" in which partisan animosity nearly vanished in the face of strengthened American nationalism. The war was also a major turning point in the development of the U.S. military. The poor performance of several U.S. militia units, particularly during the 1812-13 invasions of Canada and the 1814 defence of Washington, convinced the U.S. government of the need to move away from its Revolutionary-era reliance on militia and focus on creating a more professional regular force. Spain was involved in fighting in Florida but was not an official belligerent; some Spanish forces fought alongside the British during the Occupation of Pensacola. The U.S. took permanent ownership of Spain's Mobile District.
In Upper and Lower Canada, British and local Canadian militia victories over invading U.S. armies became iconic and promoted the development of a distinct Canadian identity, which included strong loyalty to Britain. Today, particularly in Ontario, memory of the war retains its significance, because the defeat of the invasions ensured that the Canadas would remain part of the British Empire, rather than be annexed by the United States. In Canada, numerous ceremonies took place in 2012 to commemorate the war, offer historical lessons and celebrate 200 years of peace across the border.[10] The conflict has not been commemorated on nearly the same level in the modern-day United States, though it is still taught as an important part of early American history,[11] and Dolley Madison's and Andrew Jackson's respective roles in the war are especially emphasized.[12][13] The war is scarcely remembered in Britain, being heavily overshadowed by the much larger Napoleonic Wars occurring in Europe.
HOLLLLLLLYYYY
you took this from wikipedia -_-
Consequences of the War. The Americans realized that there was little sympathy in Canada for leaving the British Empire. The Indians lost all chance of forming an independent buffer state between Canada and the US. Even though it occurred after the war Jackson's victory at New Orleans in which a veteran British Army was annihilated and the Duke of Wellington's brother in law was killed, showed that a no European power could not win a land war in the U.S. The burning of Washington like the burning of Moscow in the Napoleonic wars had no strategic significance.
I'm not sure if losing ten percent of your force counts as being "annihilated"... And yes, a European nation could defeat the US in a land war, considering the Canadian militia halted the US invasion and the British managed to take the capital. The British had committed a majority of their power to Europe and yet the war was still going in Britain's favour, whereas the American's had committed everything as it was on their own soil and was doing poorly save some successful naval skirmishes and a handful of victories on land. The British didn't want to keep fighting because they saw no reason to, otherwise they would have comfortable defeated America with their massive navy, elite army and endless resources.
Okay decimated then. That's good enough considering that Jackson's casualties were minimal. As to winning a land war it was impossible. The vastness of the American wilderness, combined with potential for the American farmers and frontiersmen to wage ceaseless guerrilla war would have bled the British dry. This wasn't India with a docile population willing to accept a dominant occupying power. Britain's position in Europe would have become much weaker, and Waterloo was looming.
They would have had more trouble than it was worth, yes, that's why they didn't continue the war. But it wouldn't have been possible for the reasons that I provided but which you ignored.
I'm afraid we must disagree. They would have lost the war flat out. It may have taken some time, but the British Army would have been defeated. They might have held on to some to some cities and faced urban warfare, but they had neither the commanders or resources capable of beating Jackson or even Harrison on the frontier. They would have faced an endless array of Dan Morgans, Mad Dog Waynes, Francis Marions etc. They would eventually turned tail and left.
you seem to confuse 19th century america and 21st century america, the US lacked the infrastructure, experience, willingness and resources to continue a war with a superpower. The British had only really sent a militia from Canada and a small force from Europe and despite that they managed to face the entire US force, burn the capital and manage to do so with half the casualties from combat as the Americans. So the British had the most powerful Navy in the world, an effective blockade, more soldiers, more experience and more resources., yet they were losing because Andrew Jackson won an impressive victory that killed a couple hundred soldiers? No way. The Americans had more soldiers at the start of the war but considerably less than the British at the end, in either case the British were doing quite well.
The US wouldn't fight to the bitter end either, they would cut their losses as soon as they realised that they were losing all their cities and sue for peace. Wars don't necessarily end when the enemy is totally annihilated.
As an American, I really hate the sense of nationalism in our country. We lost this war, we lost the Vietnam War but many people here don't admit that we did. Americans blindly supporting their flag goes for a lot of things unfortunately, including many things today (the right to bear arms being a "Constitutional [and thus completely moral] Right" would be a good example of one of them).
Gabe T. You fucking moron leave this country bitch
Canadians did not burn down the white house in the war of 1812,We did how ever march there, decided against it,said the hell with it and left. (this is what we've been taught in school growing up in Canada)
Harry Brown in school they told us the british burned down the white house
War of 1812, 3 second history: The USA invaded Canada and lost.
How to upset an AMerican: Tell the truth.
But yet that’s incorrect, the war never about Canada. Abs the USA won the majority of battles in Canada including the last two. Now tell me where that isn’t truth 🤷♂️
Yeah because Britain was crippling the US economy with embargoes, stealing American sailors, and arming Native Americans in lands that Americans wished to settle.
Sorry but it was never about Canada. Yes, part of the war was fought on Canadian soil but that's not what started the war. Not even close.
There's this whole concept that America is the 'land of the free' when the Declaration of Independence was signed. However, the fact that the British during the War of 1812 stopped slave ships and freed them kind of says something about how "free" the country actually was, and still is.
They are European occupying force holding Native North Americans in subjugation.
And it took them almost a century to actually rectify the 13th amendment too.
Song?
In 1814 we took a little trip,
Along with colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississippi.
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans,
And we fought the bloody British in the town of New Orleans.
We fired our guns and the British kept a comin',
There wasn’t 'bout as many as there was awhile ago.
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
On down the Mississippi to the gulf of Mexico.
Oh we looked down the river and we seen the british come.
There must have been a hundred of 'em beatin' on a drum.
They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring.
We stood behind our cotton bales and didn? t say a thing.
Old hickory said we could take 'em by surprise,
If we didn’t fire our muskets till we looked 'em in the eyes.
We held our fire till we seen their faces well,
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and gave 'em a little, well, we Fired our guns and the British kept a comin',
There wasn’t 'bout as many as there was awhile ago.
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
On down the Mississippi to the gulf of Mexico.
We fired our cannons till the barrels melted down,
Then we grabbed an alligator and we fired another round.
We filled his head with cannonballs and powdered his behind,
And when we touched the powder off, the gator lost his mind.
We fired our guns and the British kept a comin',
There wasn’t 'bout as many as there was awhile ago.
We fired once more and they began to runnin'

"Tchaivosky Music intensifies in head"
So many of the “Americans”fighting the British,were in fact British
Generally, a good article YET the American Navy attacked York in Upper Canada (now Toronto) looting and Burning the Upper Canada Legislature.
The Americans were defeated everywhere (Ontario/Quebec) in their Army attacks.
In Hamilton 3,500 Americans camped in Stoney Creek when 750 Militia and Regulars attacked at Night capturing the 2 American Generals. The Americans were defeated and chased back to the Niagara Border.
That was when the British having defeated Napoleon joined the 1812 War.
The American Presidential Palace was burned and then White-Washed in retaliation for the Burning of York. Then the British attacked and bombarded Baltimore Fort Wayne prompted: "Oh Say Can you See by the Dawn's Early Light that our Flag was Still There..."
Most Americans are Sadly NOT aware of this History.
The British did not join the war when Napoleon was defeated, they were in it from the start, British regulars served in Canada and were extremely successfull
I'd love to know how the tiny and poorly-trained US army managed to hold out so well against he British, even after we were able to allocate forces from the European theater. Frankly, I blame the same shit as the Revolution; crack soldiers lead by officers who continuously under-estimated their enemy and couldn't honestly find their ass in the dark with both hands and a fucking map.
Ummm, the "tiny, poorly trained" US army didn't perform very well at all, generally speaking. The US invasions of Canada were all disasters despite the initial force in Canada not amounting to much more than a handful of redcoats, some native Americans and Canadian farmers
LoZ Collector I assume since the British were More concerned with France they sent their weakest units and Canada ( and the Aussies) to deal with the Americans
by the time the war was over, peace talks had already began
You know that is not at all what happened during the War of the American Revolution right ? Generally speaking the british officers and soldiers were more competent than the american ones, even George Washington was known to be an solely average tactician, only really good in retreats. Reasons for why they won include, british soldiers refusing to fight against their countrymen, France, Spain, the Dutch and others ganging up on the British, there being a ocean between the countrys and simple strokes of luck. The american soldiers had to use guerilla tactic, otherwise the Revolution would have been crushed pretty fast, the land itself was there biggest weapon.
Honestly, the War of 1812 was started by President James Madison because Major General Dearborn felt that Canada could easily be won and that Canadians would be happy to be part of the U.S. instead of part of Britain. All that land! Furs! Fish! Natural resources! (It wasn't true that Canadains would be happy to be part of the US. Canadians felt this would just be another form of colonization and the British were treating Canadians better than they did Americans before 1775 because they had, kinda, learnt their lesson). Also, some Congressmen from the south encouraged the President to go to war with Britain because they felt (it was probably true), that Britain was creating economic problems for them and helping the First Nations to prevent American expansion westward. Why not go north, instead?
The war of 1812 was a fucking side show for the British, there was more money in the carribean at the time, There was no money in fighting the USA, If they wanted they could of taken the colonies back, but for what? all about the money mate.
Victory for the British. As they say, Rule, Britannia! Britannia rules the waves!
The Americans are happy because they think they won. The Canadians were happier because they know they won--they remained part of the British Empire. And the British are happiest because they’ve forgotten all about it.
Casey Jack: Great comment !! You're right about the British....most people here have never even heard of this war. If you ask people here what happened in 1812 they will tell you all about Napoleon getting his "rear-end" kicked by the Russians :-)
O say can you see, by the dawns early light! What so proudly we hailed
Canadian militias helped too
You mean British north America?
They were just called Brits at that point
They were mostly from Upper, and Lower, Canada, so Canadians

+Daniel Cao same here
At least Britain don’t do slavery something Americans love doing
That makes no sense
Ok, to settle this big argument, British Victory in basically everything
American victory in surviving and not losing any land. And Plus, home country advantage to both sides, and America was still about 10-20 years old.
Americas objective was to conquer, they failed. Britain objective was to defend, they succeeded. Hence, Britain won.
and the only thing nobody wants to admit is that nearly all of the British forces involved in the war were of Scottish/English-Canadian descent.
So?

*America starts war with Britain*
Britain: Ah shit, here we go again.
What's the song?
Actually the last battle of the War was the Second Battle of Fort Bowyer which the British won
7000 troops and a fleet vs an outpost with 200 men and not a ship in sight. Yep a typical British glorious victory, like fighting the fuzzy wuzziez later in the century. Typically in the 1812 war when the forces were matched, or even half strength against Martial Pump, the Americans won. That's not to say the Brits were wimps. The Americans were former Brits. The British, like many Americans over imagine their prowess. Like Brits taking sole credit for defeating Napoleon, which is far from factual, but makes a good Sharpes miniseries.
S Tho The Americans never won, it was a military stalemate
S Tho That wasn't the case in the Niagara Campaign, Counter-invasion,..... or the majority of evenly-matched battles throughout the rest of the War for that matter. There are numerous incidents of large numbers of Americans surrendering to smaller numbered British forces throughout the War too. Sometimes this was from the mere presence of natives amongst the British ranks, the natives hated & despised the Americans so virtually all of them allied themselves with the British just so that they could scalp some Yankees. This installed fear amongst Americans and so just seeing or hearing natives amongst the British forces was enough to deter many from fighting.
+Brythonic Fox. That is true in the 1st months of the War. The exact converse is true in the next year as entrenched Proctor chaotically fled Detroit hearing of the loss on the lake, exposed/abandoned the Shawnee and left the Toronto region completely exposed to Harrison and the US Regulars. It was a chess game, tit for tat war like most in the era. Good general's and complete twits on both sides.
I don't believe either the US or UK won that war, but the US did win the 19th Century in North America, against all odds and an array of European interests.
Canadians, themselves, we're always too small in numbers to do much on their own, despite recent imaginings of Harper, but the UK did well, till Baltimore and New Orleans.
By Nov 1814 the causes of the war were already resolved. The war was a military tie. The following peace, however, was a victory for the US.

Yeah, the brits were definitely the good guys in this situation
SO MUCH BETTER than CrashCourse's bullcrap bias.
The British were removing what from US ships? HAHAHA hah..ha..ah...
The U.S. won, and here's why (also if you get some information that British won please tell me without calling me a dumbass) The U.S. won because if the British won, America would no longer exist, or it would be much smaller than it is today... also I saw a comment saying that the U.S. lost because they tried to invade Canada, and failed. But, only a couple of seconds into the video he says that The British only got to Detroit and then were pushed back, so they failed too. And if the U.S. didn't win then no one did because the British didn't regain control of America. Also (I don't think this means U.S. won) in the Battle of New Orleans the U.S. had 4,000 troops and the British had like 12,000 but the U.S. won also, i don't know if this is a hundred percent true, the U.S. only list like 15 people in that battle
America's goal was to annex Canada and they failed miserably. So Canadian/ British victory
America's goal was never to annex Canada it was to stop the british from kidnapping US sailors which they did achieve
Gabriel.b - they didn’t really achieve anything
Maybe in Hollywood you can direct your own fantasy film - but this is real life and you're just a puny little prick that does not have the power to change the official outcome of that war. British/Canadian Victory whether you like it or not. Canadians wanted to be British not American - and they are to this day so what on earth have you been taking to make you think you won?

Ryan Milette u know Canada wasn't a country ant the time it was just part of the British Empire
we were a colony yes but we had our own government our own way of life our own army our army was simply "controlled" by the brits but we were a country we were canada we weren't the brits
you know a lot of Canadian also fought in that war right ? we were simply signed role by british forces so people talk of our forces as British because we were under British command but yeah we also fought in large number
Thank you! This is so much better than stupid crash course history
Imagine if the UK had recaptured the US, all their "freedom" and "peaceful intervention" gone to hell.
LOL
It wouldn't happen we would take over Britain in there process. We have a stronger military. And would most likely get help from Canada because it would be stupid and immature to even try that
Britain was pretty cool
KoalaStudio.TV Yes they were, Canada was pretty cool as well for not starting a revolution like the USA and staying loyal to the crown
LNB KS No they recognised that we were actually the same people
Matty Shaw if the us stayed loyal to the crown most likely only ww1 would happen and the brits would be rekt and if we would have rebelled we could have been the power house
What the fuck is that logic you filthy illiterate?
anus
Everyone kind of won the war, Canada & the U.S felt a stronger sense of national pride (despite the U.S. losing they won a few battles like New Orleans), the UK also won.
The only real losers were the Native Americans who lost even more territory.
Who was the genius that named it the war of 1812
Hahaha I just saw another video saying that the Americans attacked the British at New Orleans and 'won' by repelling them - I guess national pride never dies! x-D
The War Of 1812 is considered as America's ruthless imperial campaign against Indian democracy.
well the Spanish American war is too
but hey America just wanted to be like the British at the time lol big bro little bro situation
Riley Crawford, the conflict between the US and the Spanish Empire isn't for self-determination for Cuba and the Philippines but expanding US supremacy within America and outside from the Western Hemisphere. The Gringos didn't desire European Colonialism but economic enlargement a modern type of neo-colonialism.
Indian Democracy???? LMAO...
Fuck off. The U.S. wanted to show that it was independent and it didn't want Britain to impeach their sailors. How is it the U.S fault?
a name I don't know dude , if u read America's short history you will see how ALL other countries have hated it since day 1!!

United States war goals of 1812
✅End impressment of sailors
✅maintain diplomatic recognition
✅end violations of trade neutrality
✅defeat Tecumseh's confederation
✅prevent British Invasion of the US
❌annex Canada
5/6 goals accomplished seems like a victory to me
Canadian war goals:
✅ don't get annexed
1/1 seems like a win to me
5/6 = 83%
1/1 =100%
Bonus: we burnt down the white house so...
Damien Irwin no you didn't that was the British...
epicness M fair point
Britain was never planning any land invasion for occupation, simply smash and crap which worked, second, impressment ended before the war even took swing and trade neutrality was not enforced, the West African fleet continued to do as it pleased, Britain's goal of holding the US until Napolean was defeated and them bringing the US to the table was 100% successful. God, read!
British war goals:
Annex New England: ❌
Establish a Native State: ❌
Stop American Expansion:❌
Keep Canada:✅
Neither side achieved their goals, nobody won the natives lost.
Why so anti U.S in the comments? The U.S. Was pissed for the British not recognizing their independence so they declare war to protect impressment
It was actually British fault of that 1812 war
Canada\Britain won
wrong
The US failed to achieve their pre war goals. The British, Canadians and Native Americans made some gains but not enough to force a capitulation. The British blockade was ravaging the US economy and drove them to seek out peace. The war was therefore a marginal victory for Canada and the British Empire. The natives weren't so luck though.
Clorox Of Bleach Canada is Britain back then
Mr McCrumple only a few thousand men died in that war to force capitulation at least half the US army would have had to been destroyed the war was a joke nothing was gained by either side
Battle of New Orleans was a bloodbath tho
Im from america but seriously i love canada GOOOO CANADA!

General Jackson dealt that lopsided ass whooping to the same Brits under Packenham who defeated Napoleon's men in the Peninsular War.
We had our great victorys too. Plattsburgh, Baltimore, Lundys lane, New Orleans, and Lake Erie. our only HUGE defeats were at D.C. and detroit. I hate British Generals Brock, Ross, and Admiral Cockburn.
+Dylan Maher You hate them? Didn't realise there was that much passion for this war.
+Jabzy as an American its pretty rare that someone even knows about this war let alone is still angry about it lol
Ha, I guessed as much. I can't even imagine many people who know about the war will know those people. It would be like the British being offended by depictions of a General of the Napoleonic or continental army,
+Dylan Maher Detroit showed just how pathetically laughable the US militia was. Brock had a force of only a few hundred regulars and around 100 militia, but he had the militiamen dress up in British uniforms and march constantly back-and-forth to make the force look a lot larger and disciplined than it was.This scared the American fort commander so much that he gave up the fort before any battling took place.
+Dylan Maher You did NOT win the Battle of Lundy's Lane. This was the battle that saved Canada. After the battle the Americans retreated southward back to occupied Fort Erie.
Get rekt
The English Gentleman, You brits are welcome to do that again today lmao

American goals
1: stop britain from ceasing American sailors. Success
2: cease native land. Success
3: take cannada. Fail
British goals
1: keep cannada. Success
2: stop American trade with France. Fail but napoleon was defeated anyways so nobody cares.
Native goals:
1: survive. Fail
America achieved 2 out of 3 of its goals, britain achieved one of its goals and the other was no longer one of its goals by the end of the war, andThe natives failed to achieve any of its goals.
Which is why I say tie, I'm 1st generation American but the war just seems like a tie at the end.
America already achieved number 1 diplomatically BEFORE the war started.
You can’t say Britain failed to stop American trade with France. As you already said, it didn’t matter by wars end.
History for babies who need crudely drawn cartoons to keep their attention for 3 minutes.
+Morbus "Crudely drawn"???!!! That's fighting talk.
hardly enslaved, the press-ganging of british citizens was a questionable practice but any british citizen could legally be forced into the navy and were paid ect. ect. the idea of transferring your citizenship didn't really exist at the time so the british just viewed them as renegade british, they were treated the same as any british sailor would be (not saying it was right, just saying that claiming slavery incorrectly while the US held actual slaves is quite hypocritical)
g any american can be forced into the draft, so every British citizen could be put into the navy. The British were taking the newly settled British people trying to move to america/serving on american ships and left Americans with proper papers. This practice was stopped before the war started anyways...
The US achieved what they wanted. They stopped the British kidnapping of American sailors and guaranteed their westward expansion.
No, they didn't America planned to take Upper Canada first, then the rest of Canada and even the Hudson Bay Company's territory (Rupert's Land - now defunct) in the west of Canada. They got nothing.
yet they continued the war after the UK ended the orders in council, in fact that was 2 days before the US declared war.
So what you're saying is the U.S. got something while the brits got nothing. Got it. So we did win.
Vasting On the contrary- Britain's blockades stopped trade with France and almost ruined the American economy, we stopped the invasion of Canada and took multiple areas of land in the North East. America's goals were to invade Canada, stop Native American's from having land and trading with France. We accomplished more war goals than them, mainly as their seizing of Native territories happened after the war ended, meaning they didn't accomplish it in the war.
