On December 24, 1814, the Treaty Of Ghent was signed in the Netherlands by delegates from the United States and Great Britain, beginning the process of ending the War of 1812. While signalling the end of the war, the treaty still had to be ratified by Congress and Parliament (which would come in February 1815), and several battles fought before peace was established, including the Battle of New Orleans, which would take place on January 8, 1815.
Flag raising ping!
I can only raise a flag upside down under this regime. Unless it is specific to a person or event not connect that needs to be celebrated.

Well,in 1814 we took a little run
with blackwater Colonel Erik Prince ,
down the swamp Potomac,
for a little White Hut fun
We fired our guns and the fascists kept a comin’
There wasn’t nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and the lefties were a runnin’
Down the swamp Potomac to the Delaware Shore
