The answer is C.

The capture of Napoleon led Great British to concentrate its full efforts in the War of 1812.

Starting the 19th century the intensification of the Anglo-French war provoked continental blockades from France against the United Kingdom and a constantly military focus in Europe from Great Britain, once Napoleon was captured the British empire could be more aggressive in their North America territories.
