It is absolutely true. Some of the historians are right in believing
that the leading motive for the war of 1812 was the western desire for land
expansion. Although there was no clear
cut winner in this war, but the US believed that they had defeated the British
and won the war. The win was based on the theory that the US was able to show
the British that they could defend their own land very easily. There were
22,200 approximate deaths due to the war.
