Was the quasi war an undeclared navel conflict?

Yes, the Quasi-War was an undeclared naval conflict that occurred between the United States and France from 1798 to 1800. It primarily involved naval engagements and skirmishes in the Caribbean and along the Atlantic coast, driven by tensions over trade and diplomatic relations. Although neither side formally declared war, the conflict led to the capture of numerous vessels and significant military actions. The Quasi-War ultimately resulted in the strengthening of the U.S. Navy and a resolution of some key diplomatic issues between the two nations.
