The US did not acquiesce. It was settled by treaty and the British left. How could you possibly call that acquiescing?

Considering that the treaty that finally got them to leave was Jay's Treaty, signed in 1795, I'd say we acquiesced to British troops for quite a while after the war.

Sometimes what should be simple gets so complicated.
