The Hartford Convention was a series of meeting in Hartford, discussing grievances about the War of 1812. The main topics were New England's secession (which was never acted on), removing the three-fifths compromise, and the American relation with Great Britain and France. Nothing much happened other than these talks.

The Hartford Convention, held in 1814-1815, took place in Hartford, Connecticut, primarily as a response to the grievances of New England states regarding the War of 1812. Participants, mainly Federalists, sought to address issues such as the war's impact on trade and the perceived overreach of federal power. They discussed potential constitutional amendments to protect their interests and, controversially, even considered the possibility of secession. The convention ultimately highlighted the growing regional tensions and contributed to the decline of the Federalist Party.
