This statement is true. There are several different events that show America is far from isolationist during this roughly 160 year period. Here are some examples of major events that show America's lack of isolationism.
1) Manifest Destiny- During this era in American history (early to mid 19th century), the US gained thousands of miles in territory from countries like France (through the Louisiana Purchase) and Mexico (through the Mexican-American War and Mexican Cession).
2) Imperialism- The era of American imperialism (late 19th and early 20th century) resulted in the US expanding their territory, annexing places like Puerto Rico and Hawaii.
3) World War I (1917-1919)- The US got involved in World War I after Germany made several actions that upset the American government and citizens. This includes the sinking of the Lusitania and the Zimmerman Telegram.
Day 1:
Today, I went to school. I woke up when the rooster awoke me, and I first did all my chores. Afterwards, I had breakfast and walked to school. The teacher made us copy some words on our slates, and spell them out loud. Everyone did really well. For lunch, I went to the river with my friends. The teacher did not assign homework, and we got to go home early.
Day 2:
Today my chores were more difficult, because we are beginning to get ready for winter. At school, the teacher made us memorize some poems, and I was asked to help the smaller children with the words they did not know. I also stayed after school to help the teacher clean the classroom.
Day 3:
Today was Friday, which meant that we would study science. Therefore, we went to the river, and we looked at the fish and the other animals that lived there. The teacher then sat us on a circle in the forest and she talked to us about how all nature is connected. We then had lunch and came back to the classroom. Once in class, we wrote a paragraph about winter, and then we went home.
song dynasty in china had two parts: first part was the "north song" dynasty. it ruled most of china n time was good. it followed long time of civil wars n ppl were tired of wars. so the emperor consolidated his power n ruled over a large n stable empire.
but it grew weak n was attacked by enemies from north. it lost most of its northern territories n ruled only southern china. it was called the "south song" dynasty. due to limited resources, time was tough. it had to maintain a large army to protect against the north which required heavy taxation of ppl.
True - the purpose of the expedition was to map the new louisiana territory as well as lay claims to the oregon country :)
