Answer: d. the Spanish-American War.

Explanation:

The excerpt is part of President Roosevelt´s first State of the Union address, in 1902, when he stated firmly that the canal was a prime priority for his government. The Spanish-American War had proven that a faster water crossing between the Us´s east and west coast was very much needed.

By 1903 the United States had helped Panama become independent from Columbia, and bought a 10-mile wide piece of property in order o build the Panama Canal.

Why do you think the U.S. maintained a position of neutrality in World War II for so long? What was the role of the U.S. in this
Tamiku [17]
The US believed in isolation, if another country attacked the US that is the only way that we would get involved, therefore we tried to stay out of the mass killings and havoc that the Germans and Japanese were creating until we felt that it involved the US. The US did not want to pick a side and have to stay loyal to that side and go to war when that country did because of the alliance. The US finally joined in to help the allied powers to supply them with weapons/military troops. They did not enter the war until December 1941.
