These trade routes were very valuable as they brought in expensive products such as spices and silk.
During the periods of fighting with the Native Americans and expanding American territory on the continent through ethnic cleansing the United States was not actively engaged in expanding its boundaries around the globe through colonialism like other European states were doing at the time.
