Answer:
The Battle of New Orleans during the War of 1812 was the final and decisive battle of the war.
Explanation:
The Battle of New Orleans occurred between December 23, 1814 and January 8, 1815. It is considered the greatest battle of the War of 1812.
At the end of 1814 a British fleet of more than 50 ships sent by General Edward Pakenham, sailed to the interior of the Gulf of Mexico and prepared to attack New Orleans. The American general Andrew Jackson, commander of the North American army that was in the southwest of the country, had composed his regiment mainly of militiamen and volunteers, with which he fought against the British who suddenly attacked his position on January 8, 1815. The troops of Jackson effectively barricaded themselves behind the fortifications, while the English hosts were exposed, the struggle being brief and ending in a decisive victory for the Americans, thus achieving the British withdrawal and the death of General Pakenham.
