impacted foreign trade with nations other than Britain

Explanation:

The Embargo Act of 1897 was repealed because it "impacted foreign trade with nations other than Britain."

This is evident in the fact that American traders lost a lot of money during the period of embargo, as it was not only the British, the embargo asked not to trade with but other foreign nations as well.

The purpose of the act was to lessen the power of Britain during their war with France, however, it affected the American merchants more as it prohibits trading with not just the British but other foreign nations. It was later repealed in 1809 as against the scheduled 1810.
