<span><u>The cold war</u> began between Russia and the United States of America in 1947 which was caused by the end of World War II and would last until 1991. During this time the two countries fought to gain power of a different sort as opposed to the war that had just ended, resulting in many intellectual races to prove who was the most superior.</span>
Spanish settlements in North America had one purpose only: to protect their shipments of gold and silver from competing European powers. The first successful settlement in North America, St. Augustine, Florida was built to protect Spanish fleets from attack by privateers. The statement above that the Spanish had "big cities. large farms" is patently incorrect.
It should be noted that the first successful rebellion in America; Pope's rebellion, also known as the Pueblo revolt, was the result of numerous failed promises on the part of the Spanish. Four hundred Spaniards were killed in the revolt and the Spanish lost control of New Mexico.

1) What was Washington's view of what US foreign policy ought to be? Why did he argue that nations should avoid antipathies and passionate attachments toward other nations? What should guide US foreign policy? Why?
He believed that the United States should have good relations with all countries but they should have not attachment to said countries. He believed that attachment to other countries would draw them into a war that they had no common interest being involved in. Antipathies also led to more frequent collisions and conflicts which is what the US did not want. Becoming friends with a stronger nation meant the weaker nation would become a satellite for the stronger one. In this case the US would be the weaker country and therefore the satellite. Promote trade and a commercial relationship but keep political connection at a minimum.
The US was weak at this time militarily and economically they had just been freed from British colonial control and needed trade only at this time
