The British challenged U.S. neutrality in the war with France by seizing American ships, impressing American sailors into the British Navy, and imposing trade restrictions. Despite efforts by President Washington to maintain peace through diplomacy, tensions rose, leading to significant political divisions in the U.S. The Jay Treaty was one response to these challenges, although it was met with mixed reactions domestically.
