Who taught you history. London alone had over 500,000 people back then.
UK's population 1811 - 9,496,000:?
Sorry, i meant Cnada back then.... I would be more mentally retarded then Sheen and Ghadhafi put together if i though the UK only had 500,000
Could you maybe read my post better or ask if its a typo or somthing before you make harsh statments? :l
War of 1812 ended in a treaty (draw) anyway. Both sides realising it was not worth a prolonged war.
To summerize the whole affair.
US declared war on UK do to Britan meddling with US affairs (kidnaping US sailors for service, encouraging native american revolts, so on)
US tried to invade Canada (only part of Empire within strike), had some eairly success, but failed horribly in the end.
UK counter attacked and invaded with now fresh Napolionic troops. Like with US; had some eairly success, but failed latter on.
Then (after lots of fighting), US relised we can't kick Britan out of NA. Britan relised they couldn't retake US under the Empire. So both sides decided to end the affair.
