    The Embargo Act of 1807 failed because America hoped to hurt Britain by not trading with them, while attempting avoid war. The Americans thought the British depended on them for Agricultural products, but it was a disaster. It backfired on the Americans when Britain simply traded with Latin America so it was repealed on March 1, 1809.
