well i continued reading on about the War of 1812 - all wars seem senseless to me when I read about the deaths, but that war worked out the right way - it was the end of hostilities between the US and Britain and Canada and all have been good friends and allies and prospered from the relationships since.
i wonder what would have happened if the Brits hadn't been busy fighting Napoleon and had put all their military might into North America and defeated the United States soundly. What would have become of the US, a country only 40 years old at the time? I don't think the Brits would have wanted to occupy and govern the US, they knew it would have been impossible to endure for long.
