The War of 1812 and Chartering the Second Bank of the United States (HOM 22-A)
History of Money, Lecture 22, Pt. A: in 1811 the charter for the First Bank of the United States expired but the nation retained about a little more than one hundred state-chartered banks. In 1812-14, however, the country found itself at war with Great Britain, and the war required unprecedented borrowing. What remained was a mess of state bank notes that were no longer redeemable in coin. In 1816 the Congress chartered a Second Bank of the United States, out of the hope of restoring stability to the financial system.
