The Proclamation of Neutrality 1793

Summary- There were several belligerent powers in which existed a state of war, to the point where the United States felt it their responsibility to act friendly towards them. The U.S. warned their citizens to cautiously avoid all acts that may interfere with this established act of conduct. They also threatened severe punishment and to remove individual protection from the government if a citizens were to compromise the neutrality.
