The correct answer is: 3. It tested the United States' willingness to continue George Washington's policy of neutrality.

The conflict between France and England, particularly during the Napoleonic Wars, put pressure on the United States to decide how to respond to the hostilities and affected its foreign policy, particularly the desire to maintain neutrality as advocated by George Washington.
