What was the result of the embargo jefferson declared against britain in 1807

The Embargo Act of 1807 was a general embargo enacted by the Congress of the United States of America. The law was intended to prohibit US ships from exchanging and interacting with foreign ships in foreign ports. The law was aimed primarily at French and British ships and was promulgated in reaction to the seizure of US ships, which were suspected of having contraband of war. The move was seen as a violation of the neutrality of the United States in the Napoleonic War. The Embargo Act of 1807 was approved as compensation for the numerous seizures, but mainly for the Chesapeake-Leopard affair.

Consequences: The embargo, which supposedly caused an economic burden to the belligerent countries, brought even more burden to the United States. US trade abroad was greatly affected. In fact, he almost paralyzed. The residents of the southern region were the most severely affected. They had to keep their surplus agricultural products since they could not easily export the products to the international market. The British were not negatively affected as they could still access the United States through Canada.
