The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland remained officially neutral throughout the American Civil War (1861–1865). It legally recognised the belligerent status of the Confederate States of America (CSA) but never recognised it as a nation and neither signed a treaty with it nor ever exchanged ambassadors. Over 90 percent of Confederate trade with Britain ended, causing a severe shortage of cotton by 1862. Private British blockade runners sent munitions and luxuries to Confederate ports in return for cotton and tobacco. In Manchester, the massive reduction of available American cotton caused an economic disaster referred to as the Lancashire Cotton Famine. Despite the high unemployment, some Manchester cotton workers refused out of principle to process any cotton from America, leadi

  • تبنت المملكة المتحدة البريطانية العظمى وأيرلندا موقفًا رسميًا محايدًا خلال الحرب الأهلية الأمريكية (1861-1865). اعترفت قانونيًا بالوضع الحربي بين الولايات الكونفدرالية الأمريكية لكنها لم تعترف بها قط بصفتها أمّة، ولم توقع على أي معاهدة معها ولم تتبادل السفراء مطلقًا. توقفت أكثر من 90% من التجارة الكونفدرالية مع بريطانيا؛ ما تسبب في نقص حاد في القطن بحلول عام 1862. دعمت بريطانيا منفذي الحصار الذين أرسلوا الذخيرة والكماليات إلى موانئ الكونفدرالية في مقابل القطن والتبغ. ناقش كبار المسؤولين البريطانيين عرض التوسط في أول 18 شهرًا، وهو ما أرادته الكونفدرالية لكن الولايات المتحدة رفضت بشدة.

  • Il Regno Unito nella guerra civile americana rimase ufficialmente neutrale nel corso di tutta la guerra civile americana. Il regno riconobbe formalmente lo status di forza belligerante agli Stati Confederati d'America, ma non li riconobbe mai come nazione e nemmeno siglò con loro dei trattati. Il 90% del commercio degli stati confederati con la Gran Bretagna si interruppe durante la guerra, causando una profonda carestia del cotone dal 1862. Alcuni privati inglesi, a quel punto, decisero di finanziare in maniera segreta dei corrieri che scambiavano munizioni e beni di lusso presso i porti confederati in cambio di forniture di cotone e tabacco. Il fenomeno era risaputo ma non creò problemi diplomatici tra le due nazioni dal momento che si trattava di iniziative sporadiche e private. Gli alt (it)

  • Officiellement, le Royaume-Uni pendant la guerre de Sécession en Amérique du Nord est neutre : la reine Victoria avait signé de sa main, le 13 mai 1861, le British Neutrality Act. Les États confédérés d'Amérique (la Confédération) comptait largement sur l'intervention de la Second Empire français et du Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d'Irlande pour acquérir son indépendance, mais ces puissances n'intervinrent pas ouvertement dans le conflit : cela aurait signifié la guerre avec les États-Unis (l'Union).
