The Union blockade in the American Civil War was a naval strategy by the United States to prevent the Confederacy from trading.

The blockade was proclaimed by President Abraham Lincoln in April 1861, and required the monitoring of 3,500 miles of Atlantic and Gulf coastline, including 12 major ports, notably New Orleans and Mobile. Those blockade runners fast enough to evade the Union Navy could only carry a small fraction of the supplies needed. They were operated largely by British citizens, making use of neutral ports such as Havana, Nassau and Bermuda. The Union commissioned around 500 ships, which destroyed or captured about 1,500 blockade runners over the course of the war.

Answer: America sought to impose itself as a world power.

Explanation:

The reason for joining the united states is the effort to impose itself as a world power after decades of isolation. In that direction, they acted to exploit the revolution in Cuba that the population sought to achieve because of Spanish dominance. So the cause was the Cuban Revolution, and the real reasons are the effort to make the country stand out on the international front as a vital force.

Many riots and internal problems weakened the Spanish. In such circumstances, America wanted territorial expansion. The end of the conflict brought Cuba independence, but Cuba was under US jurisdiction. The Philippines, Guam and Puerto Rico have become parts of the United States.

Why would an interpretation of a historical event change over time? Check all that apply.
vlabodo [156]

New evidence is discovered & Oversights and errors are corrected

Thats what i personally think because new opinions have to be backed with evidence, while if a piece of evidence is lost or stolen, it doesn't change the arguments because even though it is lost or stolen, there ought to be copies of the original object, but im not sure about new technology being applied to evidence, but it can go either or, its a 50/50 because new technology can enhance historical discoveries, or find new ones, but applying new technology as evidence has to be backed up with facts as to why it should be applied
