Based on the map of New York City in 1842, the supported idea about urbanization was that was more likely to occur near water for transport and energy needs.

<h3>Why does urbanization often start by the shore?</h3>

Urbanization often starts by the coastline or near the shore because people use the water for commercial activities which drive development. They use the water for transportation of goods and services by boats, and for energy as well as food for instance by fishing and through irrigation.

This was one of the reasons why New York became a major city. Thanks to its connection to the Atlantic Ocean, it became a major port that brought in goods from outside the country and also took goods from the country out. This was made even more effective when the Eerie canal was built to link New York to the Great Lakes.

The statement below was made by an American businessman in 1897.
uranmaximum [27]

The statement made by the American businessman showed that <u>American imperialism</u><u> was </u><u>mainly economically motivated</u><u>.</u>

Americans engaged in imperialism which is the acquisition of physical or economic control of other nations because:

  • They wanted raw materials that they could process
  • They wanted new markets to sell their processed goods

As a result, the U.S. acquired certain nations such as the Philippines and Hawaii as well as bases in China and Japan in order to accomplish these economic goals.

In conclusion, American imperialism was driven by economic gain.
