But in the years after the revolution, USA made strong commercial and trade alliances, ties and pacts with many European nations such as Britain, France, Spain and Italy.
In addition, the isolationist policy kept USA away from many of the conflicts, wars and alliances in Europe, allowing USA more time and resources to be used for their domestic development and prosper.
