Answer:

Economic competition among industrial nations. Political and military competition, including the creation of a strong naval force. A belief in the racial and cultural superiority of people of Anglo-Saxon descent. The five main motives for imperialism include exploration, economic expansion, increased political power, the diffusion of ideological beliefs, and the spreading of religious beliefs and practices to others.

Answer:

After reading about the United States and their imperial motives in the 1800s to the early 20th century, I believe that most of their actions were unjustified. Americans justified the imperialistic behavior by basically claiming it was their responsibility to intervene with other nation's affairs as a superior nation. However I think it isn't justifiable to intervene with other nation's affairs just because you may be a superior nation. The United States government never lost sight of their goal to earn money and establish an empire.

An example of American actions being unjustified would be in the late 1800s when Cuba began rebelling several times against the Spanish but were overpowered each time, atrocities against the Cuban citizens horrified many Americans. Then in 1898 the Maine accidentally blew up killing 260 men, the Americans falsely accused the Spanish of blowing up the Maine as an excuse to go to war with them. As a result 400 American lives were lost as well as another 2,000 from diseases such as yellow fever and malaria.

Another example of American actions being unjustified would also be in the late 1800s when the United States launched a surprise attack on the Spanish fleet in Manila bay Philippines destroying most of their ships then seizing the island of Luzon. The Filipinos began a fight for independence in 1899 leaving 4,000 Americans dead and 200,000 Filipinos dead. These are just some of my reasons that support why American Imperialism was unjustified.

The following statement was taken from a contemporary account of Germany in 1939:
IrinaK [193]

ANSWER:

From the statement in the Contemporary account, it can be interpreted that the Germans has persecuted the jews out of anger and in transfer of their aggression, which the country was facing. This made them to attribute the Jews to be the source of all evils happening in their country. The Jews were growing rapidly in Germany, and are becoming more prosperous than the Germans, the Germans became more jealous and felt like they are taking away their own prosperity. And this is why they developed strong hatred for them. The anti-semitic program does not have any base point, but it was just a political movement that the government felt will make the Germans happy, that's why the genocide which was known as Holocaust was signed into German law at that era.

The mass slaughter of the jews made many Jewish in Germany to flew to Poland. The persecution of the jews continued in Germany until after the second world war. Today the Jews have their civil right in Germany as such law has been abolished and any person seen commiting anti-Semitic will be jailed five years in prison.
