The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Southerners claimed that abolitionist victories were creating a "wedge" in the Union. What they meant by this was that people from the South -who heavily supported slavey in their territories- thought that as abolitionists' ideas spread to the northern states, these somehow weakened the Union in that these ideas confronted their people through so much debate. For the southerners, this represented an advantage and creation distraction while the South gained time and maintained slavery in the large plantations, producing the kinds of crops that moved their economy.
Were they correct? Not at all but they had a point in that so much debate on the issue of slavery and the increasing idea of abolitionism distracted decision-makers in the northern states. Those were the years were more supporters of abolition made their moves. For instance, in Rochester, New York, Frederick Douglass led the newspaper "The North Star," an abolitionist publication that somehow exerted pressure in the public opinion.
In 1898, the Spanish-American War broke out. The US became a powerhouse in Asia thanks to this conflict. With the annexation of Guam and the Philippines, the US expanded its sway over Asia. A peace treaty was concluded between the two nations following the conflict.
As a result of the United States' success in the war, the Spanish were forced to renounce their claims to Cuba and hand up control of Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines to the United States in a peace treaty. During the battle, the US also annexed Hawaii, an independent state.
The US gained ownership of and/or influence over a large number of additional areas as a result of its victory in the Spanish American War. A new far-flung empire was formed as a result of these and other geographical acquisitions.

He managed to unite the entire Greece under his rule, and not only that, but he also vastly increased the size of his empire, covering almost entirely what was then the known world.
