He Was Also Responsible For Implementing A New Tax System
The War of 1812 and the “Era of Good Feelings” were both overseen by James Madison, the fourth President of the United States. The United States made many attempts to conquer Canada throughout the conflict. Despite a British onslaught on the Atlantic coast, the United States Army was able to resist it. Britain’s desire to invade the United States was eliminated when Napoleon was destroyed at Waterloo.
The “Era of Good Feelings” was the moniker given to the postwar economic boom. The Second Bank of the United States was created in these years by Madison, as well. New taxes were also implemented during his leadership.
