Why did the british ships seize american sailors?
a. they wanted to discourage the united states' independence.
b. the sailors were all british citizens.
c. the sailors wanted to serve in the british navy.
d. britain needed sailors to fight the war with france.

Respuesta :

They wanted to stop the trade between the US and France while they were at war with the french. I think the closest answer would be A. 

I believe the answer is D. Because, during this time, Britain was fighting a war with France, and the British needed more soldiers, so they seized American ships and force sailors to hand over their boats and themselves to fight for Britain

Hope this helps!
