1) The Platt Amendment declared Cuba a U.S. protectorate.
U.S. involvement in Cuba resulted from the U.S. defeat of Spain in the Spanish-American War of 1898. Cuba had to meet a series of conditions in order for U.S. troops to withdraw from Cuba.
2) Monroe Doctrine declared that an act by a European power in the Western Hemisphere would be considered a threat.
Proposed by Monroe in 1823? (check me on this) from lessons learned after the War of 1812 and continued British meddling in North America.
3) Roosevelt's Corollary set up the United States as a Latin American police force.
This was Roosevelt's famous "Speak Softly and Carry a Big Stick" policy. The world tour of the U.S. Navy's Great White Fleet is also a good example of the Roosevelt Corollary. U.S. troops were sent to various Latin American countries in the early 20th century (Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, Haiti, etc.) when U.S. business interests were threatened.
4) Panama Canal reduced time and expense of U.S. global trade by shortening shipping route between the Atlantic and the Pacific.
One of the most important engineering feats of the 20th century.
Answer:
feared that a strong central government would revive a dictatorial government
To avoid tax and tariffs from a central government
to protect the native rights of the people
Explanation:
After the American War of Independence, the leaders and founding members of the constitution created a weak central government in the Articles of Confederation due to the following reasons:
1. The leaders feared that a strong central government would revive a dictatorial government because of the experiences they had with the British Crown.
2. To avoid tax and tariffs from a central government that has nothing or very less to do with their economic lives. They firmly stood against 'taxation without representation' and believed that the central government cannot levy any taxes but only the state governments could.
3. They leaders wanted to protect the native rights of the people endowed by their own respective state governments. They feared that if too much of powers were given to the central government, it would take away some of their rights.
This is true. They were more powerful for a while and then that was fixed.
