The excerpt below is from a speech given by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1908.

To permit every lawless capitalist, every law-defying corporation, to take any action, no matter how iniquitous, in the effort to secure an improper profit and to build up privilege, would be ruinous to the Republic and would mark the abandonment of the effort to secure in the industrial world the spirit of democratic fair dealing.

I do not believe there is the right reason for any country to go into war. Although if I had to pick one reason that a country might go into a war, or a reason that could be justifiable for going into war. My decision would be going into war to protect an ally from an invasion.
This is not because of the thought of war, this is because if a country lose his allies, it would be defenseless when war is thrust of the pawn that country who needed that Ally.

So i would say the answer is: B.) to protect an Ally from an invasion.

Which of the following was NOT a reason for United States expansion between 1880 and 1914?

Novosadov [1.4K]

Letter A is correct. Many are the reasons that led to the United States expansion, but the desire to extend Christianity was not one of them. The U.S expanded westward across North America, initially as part of 'Manifest Destiny', but also as an outlet for their growing population. They also wanted an overseas empire like the other major western powers at the time (such as Britain and France). And, that included new markets and sources of revenue along with a more proeminent position on the world stage.
