When they burned Washington in 1814

[MacTheWolf (imported)]

During the War of 1812, the British entered Washington D.C. in 1814 and burned the White House, the Senate, the House of Represenatives (sp) and the Library of Congress.

The British committed this action, in part, for the American destruction at Port Dover in Upper Canada.

Everytime I hear Naive Canadians say "we won the war of 1812", "we burned the whitehouse"

I keep nodding. You were a britsh colony back then, not Canada.

The hudson Bay company is older than Canada LOL

Nah, we can offer the Canadians something this time. Oh I know, let's give them Indiana

They wouldn't want it.

I am surprised no one has asked Mac the Wolf for a first person account.

A major loss was that they burned the 1790 census, the earliest record

of the distribution of people in the U.S.

Before it could burn down, the Lord sent a sudden and massive Thunderstorm and Fire extinguishing Rain.
