Confused a bit between the War of Independence (1776 – 1883) and the War of 1812?
Didn’t we just win the war with Britain in 1783?
The war of 1812 was always a bit confusing to me. We fought the British for independence. Why were we fighting them again? Wasn’t once enough?
This great article from History Facts helps to explain and distinguish these first American wars.
Enjoy!
