The reasons that the Americans fought along with Colombians, Ethiopians, and Puerto Ricans, were mostly geostartegic, economic, and territorial.
They fought along with the Colombians because Colombia has an excellent geostrategic position in the continent that is not very fond of the US. So by having an ally in Colombia they were able to have much better control and to be in a much better position on the affairs in South America.
Ethiopia was a zone of interest because it is crucial as a military base that will be close to the Middle East, so having an ally in them was allowing them to build their military facilities.
Puerto Rico was a territorial zone of interest, and the US wanted to keep it under its own governing because an independent country of Puerto Rico might have gone in any direction really, and even become an ally with some of the American arch enemies, and thus becoming the ''second Cuba''.
The United States became an empire in 1898 when we annexed Hawai’i and the Spanish overseas empire. When we annexed Alaska, as a non-contiguous territory, we were on the way to empire. When we annexed distant tropical islands we were there. Over the next decades we created Panama and annexed part of it, we occupied Nicaragua, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and we intervened in Mexico, China, and Russia. After WWII we adopted neo-imperial, indirect methods and engaged in horribly bloody, proxy wars with the Soviets. Since the end of the Cold War, we have returned to more direct interventions. But, because these do not involve direct annexation of foreign territories, they are not truly imperial. They need a prefix, neo-, semi-, post-, or something else.
