Which of the following was an economic motive for imperialism?

Finger [1]

American imperialism” is a term that refers to the economic, military, and cultural influence of the United States on other countries. First popularized during the presidency of James K. Polk, the concept of an “American Empire” was made a reality throughout the latter half of the 1800s. During this time, industrialization caused American businessmen to seek new international markets in which to sell their goods. In addition, the increasing influence of social Darwinism led to the belief that the United States was inherently responsible for bringing concepts such as industry, democracy, and Christianity to less developed “savage” societies. The combination of these attitudes and other factors led the United States toward imperialism.

“Ten Thousand Miles from Tip to Tip”: “Ten Thousand Miles from Tip to Tip,” refers to the extension of U.S. domination (symbolized by a bald eagle) from Puerto Rico to the Philippines. The cartoon contrasts the 1898 representation with that of the United States in 1798.

American imperialism is partly rooted in American exceptionalism, the idea that the United States is different from other countries due to its specific world mission to spread liberty and democracy. This theory often is traced back to the words of 1800s French observer Alexis de Tocqueville, who concluded that the United States was a unique nation, “proceeding along a path to which no limit can be perceived.”

Pinpointing the actual beginning of American imperialism is difficult. Some historians suggest that it began with the writing of the Constitution; historian Donald W. Meinig argues that the imperial behavior of the United States dates back to at least the Louisiana Purchase. He describes this event as an, “aggressive encroachment of one people upon the territory of another, resulting in the subjugation of that people to alien rule.” Here, he is referring to the U.S. policies toward Native Americans, which he said were, “designed to remold them into a people more Appropriately

Which of the following are examples of the ways erosion affects the environment? I. Erosion introduces pesticides and toxins int

djverab [1.8K]

The correct answer is D. I., II., III., And IV. All the options are true.

The process is systematic and all the answers contribute to the same problem.

I. Erosion introduces pesticides and toxins into waterways, causing pollution.

Soils eroded due to agricultural exploitation carry pesticides, fertilizers and heavy metals that are introduced into the waterways and causing their contamination.

II. Polluted waterways decrease biodiversity.

The water of the waterways, being contaminated, intoxicates fish, plants and other living beings that in turn many of them are eaten by other living beings that can also suffer intoxication.

III. Eroded soil allows sediment to break off and clog waterways.

The lack of trees and the loss of soil properties do not allow the absolution of rainwater. Much land is carried by the wind in the form of dust and it ends up being deposited in waterways and another part of the earth is carried by rainwater to streams and rivers that end up with levels of sedimentation higher than desirable, and by gravity this sedimentation is deposited in the bottom of the waterways and finally obstructs causing flooding in large territories.

IV. Eroded soil becomes useless for agriculture.

Both flooded territories and lands whose river beds are polluted or simply eroded by imbalances in agricultural activity, become unusable land for agriculture or land with low agricultural productivity.
