History

3 0

In June 1812, the United States declared war against Great Britain in reaction to three issues: the British economic blockade of France, the induction of thousands of neutral American seamen into the British Royal Navy against their will, and the British support of hostile Indian tribes along the Great Lakes frontier. A faction of Congress, made up mostly of western and southern congressmen, had been advocating the declaration of war for several years. These “War Hawks,” as they were known, hoped that war with Britain, which was preoccupied with its struggle against Napoleonic France, would result in U.S. territorial gains in Canada and British-protected Florida.

Which answer choice BEST explains Twain's view of American expansionism?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

D)  He believed the country ignored the interests of other peoples and the  common good, instead focusing on its own global standing.

Explanation:

Samuel Langhorne Clements, a.k.a. Mark Twain discusses his opinion of the purchase of the Philippine Islands by the United States in his "Mark Twain in Clover / Joseph in the Land of Cornbread and Chicken." And in his quote, he seems to be critical of the way the US dealt with or chose to get the island which is not based on the good of the people but merely a desire to be at par with the European nations.

Twain comments,<em> "It was just a  case of this country buying its way into good society. . . . [the US] just wanted to be like the aristocratic  countries of Europe which have possessions in foreign waters." </em>He even seems to suggest the absurd and hilarious motive behind the purchase, comparing it to<em> "an American heiress  buying a Duke or an Earl."</em> This shows his real opinion of the exchange, which he believed to be done solely on the pretext of being victorious over Spain and freeing the oppressed but in reality, a means to be on par with other European nations.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

What are two arguments nativists made for immigrant restriction.
miv72 [106K]

Beginning at the end of the nineteenth century, immigration into the United States rocketed to never-before-seen heights. Many of these new immigrants were coming from eastern and southern Europe and for many English-speaking, native-born Americans of northern European descent the growing diversity of new languages, customs, and religions triggered anxiety and racial animosity.

In reaction, some embraced nativism, prizing white Americans with older family trees over more recent immigrants and rejecting outside influences in favor of their own local customs. Nativists also stoked a sense of fear over the perceived foreign threat, pointing to the anarchist assassinations of the Spanish prime minister in 1897, the Italian king in 1900, and even President William McKinley in 1901 as proof. Following the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia in November 1917, the sense of an inevitable foreign or communist threat grew among those already predisposed to distrust immigrants.

The sense of fear and anxiety over the rising tide of immigration came to a head with the trial of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti. Sacco and Vanzetti were Italian immigrants who were accused of participating in a robbery and murder in Braintree, Massachusetts, in 1920. There was no direct evidence linking them to the crime, but—in addition to being immigrants—both men were anarchists who favored the destruction of the American market-based, capitalistic society through violence. At their trial, the district attorney emphasized Sacco and Vanzetti’s radical views, and the jury found them guilty on July 14, 1921.

Despite subsequent motions and appeals based on ballistics testing, recanted testimony, and an ex-convict’s confession, both men were executed on August 23, 1927.
