both the united states and the british knew the states would probably ignore this recommendation. article seven of the treaty promised that britain would evacuate occupied areas without -- and this is quoting from the treaty -- "without carrying away any negroes or other property of inhabitants." enslaved african americans would just be returned to their masters. finally, the treaty gave everything between the atlantic and the mississippi river, including the entire appalachian west from the great lakes, so from canada south to florida to the united states, completely ignoring spain, except for that sliver of florida, and completely ignoring britain's native allies and all of the natives lived in and controlled that place. to recap. the united states sold out its french and spanish allies. and britain sold out its africa -- it's native american allies. ground generals on the ignored article seven. they took black-and-white loyalist with them when they left. they were not going to abandon enslaved people who had run to the british for safety back into the hands of their former mast

well you have to remember, until the united states came into the war in 1917, the united states was neutral they were neutral advocating freedom of the seas. and that position was violated by germany declaring unrestricted submarine warfare. the united states though, that policy was not aimed directly at germany, but also at great britain. so the united states, they were large communities and large bodies of political opinion, and policy including the president so when they said strict neutrality, they also meant that the british should not infringe on american neutral rights. so this is a sticking point. the germans violated this. and because the german violation was so much more violent and egregious, it made the germans the bigger enemy. but it did not mean that the united states did not have quite a few complaints against great britain for the way that she implemented her blockade and restricted american trade on the seas. so, in order to answer that, the president wilson in 1916, proposed a naval act. the 1916 naval act, this act was not aimed at germany not just germany, but was also
