Ambassador Cowley's remarks elicited a cold laugh from Jerome Bonaparte. He understood that Ambassador Cowley's strong reaction stemmed from his fear that the Kingdom of Britain might be drawn into a war with the New Continent by the French Empire.

The French Empire had already lost its interests in the New Continent during the First Empire, while the Kingdom of Britain still had Canada (known at that time as Canada Province).
The original Anglo-American War was fought over the interests of Canada Province. Although the Kingdom of Britain defeated the United States of America with its strong national strength, the Kingdom of Britain itself did not fare well either.
