Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Battle of the Thames saw the death of Tecumseh, a Native American leader who had allied with the British in the war. He was not a brigadier general in the British army, but his death was a significant blow to the Indian alliance and played a role in weakening their resolve. The battle took place in Ontario, Canada, and did not lead to a long American occupation of Canada. It was also not a surprise American attack in London. The British did come from Canada to attack Detroit earlier in the war.
