While president, John Adams was placed in a difficult situation. The French were angry about Jay's Treaty, a treaty the Americans signed with Britain during Washington's presidency to prevent war. France viewed the treaty as America choosing Britain's side in their war against Great Britain. As a result, they began seizing American ships. In response, Adams sent diplomats to France to negotiate for peace. The French demanded a bribe and a loan before the negotiations could even begin. This resulted in an undeclared war between America and France known as the Quasi-War. Adams's response to the Quasi-War contributed to his loss in the election of 1800 and helped collapse the Federalist party.
