D. Learning from the ottoman way of waging war and conquering vast territory
Alexander the Great didn't conquer Italy. Neither did he conquer China.
Alexander the Great was the leader of the hellenistic period in Greece and contributed to the creation of one of the greatest empires at the time which was spanning all around from the Greek peninsula all the way to Mesopotamia.

Explanation:
At the time of America's founding, it was considered to be a weak nation and it was considered itself to be sensitive and vulnerable to encounter itself against the dominating powers of the world. Initially, America focused on developing its own land by building up military might and the ability to defend itself from other countries. Specially it worked upon negating the influence of European countries on America.
Hence America always practiced isolationism and neutrality when it came to wars against Europeans. But America had its own positive points and that is to maintain good industrial relations with other countries.
