President McKinley watched the European powers spread in Africa and Asia and started a more aggressive foreign policy. Presidents Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson continued that with different policies each. They attempted to control foreign resources, promote democracy, and serve the national interest.

Roosevelt used the Big Stick Policy, the US intervened in Latin American countries and the Caribbean.

Taft continued Roosevelt’s policy but also shifted to economic goals using the Dollar Diplomacy policy. The US encouraged and protected American trade and investment in Latin America and Asia. For example, the US supported a revolt in Nicaragua by giving loans and troops to the new government.

Woodrow policy was called Moral Diplomacy and was primarily based on democratic ideals. This way the US would use its power to promote, like Wilson said, “the development of constitutional liberty in the world.”

During the Nullification Crisis of 1832, South Carolina threatened to secede from the Union because it disagreed with a federal
nlexa [21]

Simple Answer: Tariffs

A tariff is a tax (in this case) on imports. The South, particularly South Carolina, objected strongly to the high rate of taxation on goods she desparately needed. The rates did seem a little high -- 62% on 92% of the goods coming into South Carolina (and other southern states). For example if South Carolina want to import 1000 dollars worth of shovels, she would have to pay an additional 620 dollars to do it.

The acts of 1828 and 1832 were thought by the South to be ruinous because not only would she be forced to pay much more for basic needs, she would not be able to sell her cotton to Great Britain because of the way the tax was imposed.

Thus a very strong case was built for disobedience to the 1828 and 1832 acts.   What made those two acts a pain was that North was determined to force unity on a South that had other economic problems during the 1830s (like drought). So the nullification process meant that something had to be done or South Carolina was threatening to go to war to protect her economy.

Thus the Tariff act of 1833 was introduced, and though you have not asked anything about that, I think you should note that Act was intended to unruffle South Carolina's feathers.  It was a grand compromise devised by Andrew Jackson's administration. It succeeded until 1842 when it's tenure was up. You can read all of this by reading more about the Nullification Crisis. Be sure and read about Jackson's comments on it.  

So this rather complex turn of events all really hinged on money and standard's of living. The vocabulary used was States Rights Vs Federal Rights. Put in very simple language: who has more rights, the one or the many? It took a civil war some 30 years later to resolve that question.

What are some possible consequences of the rapid settlement of Oregon?
nikdorinn [45]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

If the question refers to the Westward Expansion from 1807 to 1912, that made thousands of pioneers to cross the Oregon Trail, then some possible consequences of the rapid settlement of Oregon would be the occupation of lands to be used as farms and get people new opportunities to make a decent living growing crops. The rapid settlement was notorious by 1840. Oregon lands "promised" fertile soil. That is why people from the Mississippi Valley decide to move to Oregon. Mane Eastern farmers decided to better move to Oregon instead than New Mexico or California, thinking that the land in Oregon was more fertile to farmland. People had to cross the above mentioned Oregon Trail, knowing that the trip would not be easy.

What is the fundamental reason the US government established military forts in American Indian history territory?
Ivenika [448]

El objetivo fundamental de Estados Unidos es la neocolonización o neodominación de América latina y el Caribe con el uso de diversas estrategias doctrinarias, filosóficas, políticas, sociales, culturales y básicamente militares: El expansionismo yanqui se origina en la filosofía, doctrina o idea del Destino Manifiesto presentida por los colonizadores puritanos, pues uno de ellos escribió: "Ninguna nación tiene el derecho de expulsar a otra, si no es por un designio especial del cielo como el que tuvieron los israelitas, a menos que los nativos obraran injustamente con ella. En este caso tendrán derecho a entablar, legalmente, una guerra con ellos así como a someterlos.
