The second short story written by Napoleon Bonaparte

Story 2: The Blockade will not stop me, Napoleon Bonaparte from conquering Europe! 

Hello, Bonjour again my friends. I have some news about the war strategy that Britain has concocted. They are using their failing Navy to Blockade Europe. This 'Blockade' prevents other countries from trading with France! This was supposed to hurt me. No, no, wait. It was supposed to hurt my war effort. But.... The American Economy is also suffering! They lost a major market for their goods. Maybe now the American's will turn to us as Allies and we can fight against Britain together...

The United States is already mad at Britain about this 'Impressment'. You see, a bunch of British Navy Sailers deserted Britain to go work in The United States American Merchant Navy. The American Merchant Navy had better pay and conditions than The British Navy that was protecting the shores of the English Channel. A merchant navy is used for trade and business, instead of war. The angry British began stopping American Ships at sea to search for their deserters. The British even began Impressing, (forcing), American Sailers to work in the British Navy!!
