Throughout the Cold War the United States of America saw economic prosperity and a dramatic improvement in its standards of living. This gave the US a huge degree of power in the international arena, but to what degree did this power help it to claim victory in the Cold War? This essay will weigh up the ways in which the economic supremacy of the US led to their victory in the Cold War against the ways in which its foreign policy may have helped. These views will then be criticised and evaluated to conclude that each was important in different ways due to it being the economic power that enabled the US to pursue financially intensive foreign policies such as the arms race and enabled it to negotiate from a position of strength with the USSR in the 1980s.
Answer:
Two mian reasons why civilizations seek to expand their power:
- The quest for more resources: resources are always scarce, and every civilization wants to have more of them. Expanding its power, territory, and influence, is a way to seek control of more resources.
- To keep other civilizations from becoming more powerful: some civilizations have tried to expand their power mainly with the goal of keeping some neighboring civilization from becoming more powerful. For example, in Mesopotamia, the Assyrians conquered ended up conquering the Babylonians become the two civilizations were not able to coexist.
do you think expansion always leads to conflict?
No, expansion does not necessarily lead to conflict if the civilization that expands is pluralistic and respects cultural differences, and gives territories some degree of autonomy.

The Adams administration faced several severe tests. It was a mixed administration. Adams was a Federalist. Jefferson, the vice-president, was a Democratic-Republican. Federalists were increasingly divided between CONSERVATIVES such as Hamilton and MODERATES such as Adams who still saw himself as above party politics. Hamilton opposed Adams as the Federalist candidate. This helped create the circumstances whereby Jefferson slipped past the Federalist candidate, THOMAS PINCKNEY, to become vice president Although Hamilton resigned from the cabinet in 1795, he remained influential and his advice was sought and followed by many Federalists — even some who remained in Adams' cabinet.
Beyond these considerable problems in his own party, Adams also faced a major international crisis. The French were outraged by what they viewed as an ANGLO-AMERICAN ALLIANCE in Jay's Treaty. France suspended diplomatic relations with the U.S. at the end of 1796 and seized more than 300 American ships over the next two years.
