Why was keeping peace with the british important to the united states

The alliance between the United States and Great Britain is a partnership of the heart, bound by the history, traditions and values we share. But what makes our relationship special - a unique and essential asset - is that we join hands across so many endeavours. Put simply, we count on each other and the world counts on our alliance. We also depended on them for some essential goods.

The U. S depended on imported goods from Great Britain.
