100 why do you think the british decided to burn the white house? what did dolly madison do in response to the potential attack on the white house?

if the question is not answered fully or if it makes no sense it will be reported

Hello

after the death and exile of napoleon bonaparte a ruler of German in April 1814,Britain was able to use was its troops and shops to prosecute wars with the United States .

when the British arrived at the white house they found president James maadison and his first lady dolly had already fled to safety in Maryland.

Thanks

the brits invaded and sacked Washington DC. James Madison n his cabinet members already left when the brits arrived. the soldiers under command by their generals burnt down important bldgs like the Capitol, Treasury n the White House. Dolly, James' wife, was still in DC and ordered evacuation of the WH before the brits burnt it down.

you aint got nothin on my lil weenies
