The Spoils System is a practice where the victorious party rewards its supporters with government jobs or appointing them to government positions. It was the ‘norm’ from the Presidency of Andrew Jackson right up to the end of President’s Garfield’s administration. Well, President Garfield was killed by a man named Charles J. Guiteau, a mentally-ill man who believed he had helped the president win the election and so expected to be rewarded. Guiteau was not given a gov’t post and so plotted to kill the president and was successful. The assassination helped usher Civil Service Reform in the country.

Evaluate the relative importance of different causes for the expanding role of the United States in the world in the period from
Radda [10]

The history of the United States during 1865 to 1918 not 1910 specifically covers the Reconstruction era, the Gilded Age and the Progressive Era and involves the industrialization and the surge of immigration. It is a time period in which America expanded in many aspects. This period shows a roaming growth in the North and in the West (but not in the South). The average annual income of non farm workers grew by 75% from 1865 to 1900 and grew another 33% by 1918. America gained importance when it easily defeated Spain  in 1898 that unexpectedly brought a small empire. Cuba was quickly given independence as well as the Philippines (in 1946), Puerto Rico and some other small islands became American possessions as did Alaska that was bought to the Russians in 1867. The independent Republic of Hawaii voluntarily joined the US as a territory in 1898.
