Explanation:

The War of 1812 was influenced by British actions. British impressment of U.S. soldiers (forcibly taking American sailors into the British navy) and British support for Native - American resistance against American expansion were significant factors. British embargoes on American goods were not a main cause. The westward expansion of British Canada was not a direct cause either. U.S. sympathy for the French Revolution was not a cause of the 1812 war.

Answer:

C. British impressment of U.S. soldiers
E. British support for Native American resistance
