Order in Council of January 1807
- When
- January 1807 (disputed: 6 or 7 January)
- Where
- United Kingdom (issuing state; specific place not stated in supplied passages)
Great Britain issued an Order in Council in early January 1807 extending the blockade instituted the previous year, a decree later counted among those most inflammatory to Americans.
The passage on the Napoleonic Wars states that Great Britain responded with Orders in Council issued on 6 January and 11 November 1807, extending the range and scope of the blockade instituted the previous year. The January 1807 decree is associated with the set of orders that the blockade-decrees article identifies as most inflammatory to the Americans, alongside the November 1807 and April 1809 decrees. The precise day of issuance for the trade-prohibition order is disputed between the supplied passages.
