Is the United States Imperialistic?
Yes
- The United States has power over several foreign nations such as Samoa, Puerto Rico, and Guam.
- The United States claimed ownership of Texas after its annexation.
- The United States has control of the world economy so many other countries depend on it.
No
- The United States involves itself in foreign affairs only in the attempt to achieve liberty for mistreated citizens.
- The United States has not claimed any foreign territory in several decades.
- The United States' foreign policy rests upon the Monroe Doctrine, which forbid European nations to try to take over American soil. In return, the U.S. restricts itself from intervening in foreign affairs.
