the entire Mediterranean world
Explanation:
- At the beginning of the third century BC, Roman economic policy was in stark contrast to that of the Hellenistic world, especially Egypt.
- The economic policies of Greece and Egypt have slowly become highly regulated, depriving individuals of their freedom to seek personal profit in production or trade, crush them under the heavy burden of taxation, and forcibly organize workers into huge collectives where they were like bees in a huge hive.
- The later Hellenistic period was a time of near-constant war, which, along with rampant piracy, closed the seas for trade. The result, predictably, was stagnation.
- Stagnation created weakness in the Mediterranean countries, which partly explains the ease with which Rome could continually expand its domain, beginning in the third century BC.
- By the first century p.n.e. Rome became the undisputed lord of the Mediterranean. Yet peace did not follow the Roman victory, as civil wars ensued.

The correct answer is D - In 1902 Britain wins the South African War and takes over the Transvaal.
The word imperialism means <em>“a policy of extending a country’s power and influence through colonization, use of military force and other means”</em>. This is exactly what happened at the South African War.

Answer:
The Quarantine Speech was given by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt on October 5, 1937 in Chicago (on the occasion of the dedication of the bridge between north and south outer Lake Shore Drive), calling for an international "quarantine" against the "epidemic of world lawlessness" by aggressive nations as an alternative to the political climate of American neutrality and non-intervention that was prevalent at the time. The speech intensified America's isolationist mood, causing protest by non-interventionists and foes to intervene. No countries were directly mentioned in the speech, although it was interpreted as referring to the Empire of Japan, the Kingdom of Italy, and Nazi Germany.[1] Roosevelt suggested the use of economic pressure, a forceful response, but less direct than outright aggression.
Public response to the speech was mixed. Famed cartoonist Percy Crosby, creator of Skippy (comic strip) and very outspoken Roosevelt critic, bought a two-page advertisement in the New York Sun to attack it.[2] In addition, it was heavily criticized by Hearst-owned newspapers and Robert R. McCormick of the Chicago Tribune, but several subsequent compendia of editorials showed overall approval in US media.[3] Roosevelt realized the impact that those witting in favor of isolationism had on the nation. He hoped that the storm isolationists' created would fade away and allow the general public to become educated and even active in international policy. [4] However, this was not the response that grew over time, in fact, it ended up intensifying isolationism views in more Americans.[5] Roosevelt even mentioned in two personal letters written on October 16, 1937, that "he was 'fighting against a public psychology which comes very close to saying 'peace at any price.'"'[6] Disappointed in how the public reacted to the speech, Roosevelt decided to take a step back with regards to his foreign policy. Even to the point of accepting an apology from Japan after the sinking of the USS Panay
