Today presidents direct and oversee their cabinet and divert resources to various departments, agencies, and private organizations. 100 years ago, mega corporations from the 19th century still existed and presidents like Teddy Roosevelt had to use “big stick politics” to bend economic powerhouses such as JP Morgan and the Rockefellers. Presidents nowadays have more freedom to control the economy to their whim, for better or worst.

Their idealized landscapes encouraged westward migration.
Was a treaty between the United States<span> and </span>Spain<span> in 1819 that ceded </span>Florida<span> to the U.S. and defined the boundary between the U.S. and </span>New Spain<span>. It settled a standing border dispute between the two countries and was considered a triumph of American diplomacy. It came in the midst of increasing tensions related to Spain's territorial boundaries in North America against the United States and Great Britain in the aftermath of the American Revolution; and also during the </span>Latin American Wars of Independence<span>. Florida had become a burden to Spain, which could not afford to send settlers or garrisons. </span>Madrid<span> decided to cede the territory to the United States through the Adams–Onís Treaty in exchange for settling the boundary dispute along the </span>Sabine River<span> in </span>Spanish Texas<span>. The treaty established the boundary of U.S. territory and claims through the Rocky Mountains and west to the Pacific Ocean, in exchange for the U.S. paying residents' claims against the Spanish government up to a total of $5,000,000 and relinquishing the US claims on parts of Spanish Texas west of the </span>Sabine River<span> and other Spanish areas, under the terms of the </span>Louisiana Purchase<span>.</span>
After the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in 1979, bin Laden had seen the attack as an insult and act of aggression towards Islam. That's when he began to start a resistance against the Union. He had collaborated with many Arab volunteers to help with the resistance. After much help from Afghan resistance leaders and his collaboration with Azzam, Osama had created a militant network named al-Qaeda (the Base) in 1988. This is basically how him and his base attacked the U.S., 12 years later.
Hope this helped a lot!
