The Milan Decree was issued on 17 December 1807 by Napoleon I of France to enforce the 1806 Berlin Decree, which had initiated the Continental System, the basis for his plan to defeat the British by waging economic warfare.
The Milan Decree stated that no country in Europe was to trade with the United Kingdom.[1] It was a direct response to the British Orders in Council (1807), under which ships from any country trading with France could be seized by the Royal Navy.
