There were other people who felt we should be more supportive of and friendly with France. These people were concerned that British were interfering with trade after the war ended. They were concerned that the British were encouraging the Native Americans in the West to attack us. They didn’t like that the British didn’t leave the forts in the West like they were supposed to do. They also remembered that France provided help to us during the Revolutionary War. Thus, there was a group of people that believed we should have a stronger connection with France rather than with Great Britain.
