🧵 2/4

In the USA, the War of 1812 has been seen as a triumph for the young republic, with Andrew Jackson's victory at the Battle of New Orleans setting the US commander on the road to national pre-eminence, ensuring the independence from European powers of the US itself, and igniting in the hearts of the US citizenry a patriotic flame that has never since been entirely extinguished.

Cooler heads note that the as far as the UK and the US were concerned, the provisions of the 1814 Treaty of Ghent restored the status quo ante. Any "decisive victory" of the US figured more in the American imagination rather than the military realities.

The US stamp from the Cold War era does its best to combine a celebration of the US victory at New Orleans with an assurance of the Atlantic alliance with the sometime enemy.

In other parts of North America....

The image is a postage stamp from the United States, issued in 1965, with a denomination of 5 cents. The stamp commemorates the Battle of New Orleans, which took place in 1815. The central illustration depicts a soldier on horseback, holding an American flag and a sword, symbolizing the victory of the United States. The soldier is dressed in historical military attire, including a tricorn hat and a coat with a sash. The background features a stylized representation of the battlefield.

The top of the stamp displays the years "1815" and "1965" in red and blue, respectively, with the text "UNITED STATES 5 CENTS" in between. Below the illustration, the text "BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS" is printed in blue. On the left side of the stamp, there is a circular emblem with the text "CENTENNIAL OF THE BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS JANUARY 8, 1815." On the right side, there is another circular emblem with the text "150 YEARS SINCE THE BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS JANUARY 8, 1965." The overall color scheme of the stamp is red, blue, and black, with a white background.
