    The passage discusses the buildup to the War of 1812 between the United States and Britain and the differing viewpoints of the War Hawks and Doves.

    The main reasons the War Hawks wanted to go to war with Britain were British support of Native Americans against American expansion, trade disagreements and restrictions on American neutrality during wars between Britain and other nations.

    The War Hawks hoped to gain independence and solidify it through another war with Britain. They also hoped to create a sense of nationalism within the new United States.
