This statement is true, but not only unrealistic, now impossible. The decades prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor, the American government had been debating and attempting to continue its isolationist roots. At the end of the 1800s, the U.S. was involved in several incursions into the global arena, which were always deemed problematic in that the viewpoint was to take care of America by itself, within itself, isolationism. The lack of immediate involvement in World War I demonstrates this, and again here at the beginning of the U.S. involvement in World War II. The U.S. again had resisted the urge to be directly involved in the spheres of war happening in Europe and in Asia, but the Japanese had so antagonized the U.S. with their devastating attack on Pearl Harbor, that involvement in the war was now almost an obligation. With the U.S. having been involved in so many arenas of battle, their policy of isolationism quickly changed to one of capitalistic imperialism in order to obtain and plunder resources throughout the world.<span />

olga nikolaevna [1]

Day 1:

Today, I went to school. I woke up when the rooster awoke me, and I first did all my chores. Afterwards, I had breakfast and walked to school. The teacher made us copy some words on our slates, and spell them out loud. Everyone did really well. For lunch, I went to the river with my friends. The teacher did not assign homework, and we got to go home early.

Day 2:

Today my chores were more difficult, because we are beginning to get ready for winter. At school, the teacher made us memorize some poems, and I was asked to help the smaller children with the words they did not know. I also stayed after school to help the teacher clean the classroom.

Day 3:

Today was Friday, which meant that we would study science. Therefore, we went to the river, and we looked at the fish and the other animals that lived there. The teacher then sat us on a circle in the forest and she talked to us about how all nature is connected. We then had lunch and came back to the classroom. Once in class, we wrote a paragraph about winter, and then we went home.

QveST [7]

Answer:

Since the debt crisis, the idea that public credit is the first step aimed at the loss of national sovereignty through an economic intervention has expanded. China Qing and the Ottoman Empire were caught in the vicious circle of debt

It is a very similar story that two of the most powerful empires of the pre-modern era became states that depend on international credit in the industrial age. Qing China and the Ottoman Empire suffered a long period of decline that ended their imperial status by 1840.

Explanation:

The two countries suffered some kind of crisis towards the second half of the century that pushed them towards indebtedness abroad, which would lead to the contracting of debt in international markets in order to cope with their long decline, and with the hope of modernize their industry. Following that debt would lead them to accept, foreign intervention.

During the war, the Turks, without an army with the power to confront the Egyptians, had to request the help of their former enemies, forcing the intervention of Britain and Russia. International aid was not free, and its price was through the Balta Treaty, where Turkey agrees to adopt a free market system, withholding taxes on imports.

The case of the Qing dynasty in China was very similar. By 1820, the empire showed symptoms of clear economic damage. Stuck in an extremely restrictive trading system, through which all international trade demanded through the Cohong guild, China collided with Western interests during the First Opium War. The defeat marked the beginning of a long process of decline.
