But, because of all the World Wars and problems in other international countries, it made it hard for the United States to practice Isolationism, so the United States stopped practicing Isolationism and started to care about other international and economical problems. Since they stopped practicing Isolationism, they started helping other countries by supporting the economy, for example, the Marshall plan helped Western Europe's economy get back in shape. Another country that practiced Isolationism was China.
