Question

What changed in American foreign policy from Samoa to Hawaii?

Answer 1

Answer:

The United States changed from Isolationism to Imperialism

Explanation:

Before the period of 1890 to 1914. The United States foreign policy was termed Isolationism due to the government's insistence to always appear neutral to any conflicting party. However, by the late 19th century to the early 20th century, The United States foreign policy changed from Isolationism to Imperialism.

This was evident in the US government takeover of Spanish colonies such as Guam, Puerto Rico, Philippines, and unclaimed territory in areas such as Hawaii, Samoa, and Wake Island. This enhances the foreign image of the United States as a world power.
