George Washing wrote the Proclamation of Neutrality in 1793. The main goal of the Proclamation was to stay out of the conflict between Britain and France. The Proclamation assured that America would stay out of the war between Britain and France. Despite Americas neutrality in the war Britain captured hundreds of American trading ships. Britain's acts angered already furious Americans and made them want to join the French side of the war even more. Washington felt that the best way for America to grow and become stronger as a young nation was to focus on itself and stay out of foreign affairs.
