History

mars1129 [50]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

WWI:

The sinking of the Lusitania by a German U-boat in 1915 and the Zimmerman Telegram that attempted to incite a Mexican invasion of the USA. These two things convinced the American public of the need to enter the war and allowed president W.Wilson to do it.

WWII:

The USA remained neutral for two years, but the surprise Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor of December 7, 1941, outraged the public. Congress authorized president FDR to declare war on Japan.

Korea:

It was already the Cold War. Washington thought that the invasion of South Korea by North Korea in 1950 was an elaborated plan to expand communist and it reacted to oppose and impede it. It was the rationale of containment.

Vietnam:

Same reason as in Korea: to stop communist aggression and expansion in Asia, following the containment doctrine.

What hesitations and doubts about imperialism did Americans evince between 1865 and 1898? How did the Spanish-American War chang
nadya68 [22]

Though initially opposed to imperialism, the U.S.’s economy was overproducing due to industrialization where there surpluses to their products.  Apart from that, they were searching for other sources of raw materials that they needed for production.  Another reason for the change was that some thought that by entering into imperialism, they were continuing America’s vision of Manifest Destiny.  The Spanish-American War gave them that opportunity where they acquired Guam, the Philippines and Puerto Rico from the Spaniards.
