Answer:

British refused to return American territory in the Great Lakes region.

Explanation:

President Madison declares war on Britain as Britishers violated the Treaty of Paris. In 1783, a treaty signed between America and British Representatives in Paris, which came to be known as the Treaty of Paris. Treaty of Paris ended the American Revolution. The failure of understanding between the two nations led both to be hostile to one another. Britain broke the treaty by occupying the U.S. territory in the Great Lakes region. The United States and Britain remained sour enemies for many years. This lack of respect led to the War of 1812.
