Name three things that drove the United States into a policy imperialism

Answer 1

Three things that drove the United States into a policy imperialism is desire for military strength, thirst for new markets and cultural superiority.

Explanation:

American Imperialism started in 1890 and lasted till 1920. The industrialization peaked about twice the amount of British production which led Americans to seek new consumers to sell their products. When compared to military strength the British army was 5 times and the Navy was 10 times bigger than the Americans army and navy.

The countries around the United States never set forth any threat to it but it has a fear about the oversea countries. Also, the influence of Social Dwarfism separated people into groups following different cultures. These made America feel weakened and fueled it to follow the Imperialism to become a strong nation.
