Prompt 2- The US began to adapt an imperialistic  foreign policy during the early 1900's because of increased industrialization, social darwinism, and the idea of American exceptionalism. In terms of increased industrialization, the US was manufacturing more products than ever before. In order to increase profits, companies needed more markets to sell their goods to. This resulted in a desire for the US to increase their global trade and influence. As far as social darwinism, the idea of "survival of the fittest" was used as justification and as a rationale for imperialism. America believed that other "weaker" countries would eventually be taken over by a superior country. The American government believed it would be best if these countries fell under our influence, as our nation established institutions like democracies and protected individual liberties. The belief that America's political ideologies and government structures are superior to other countries is known as American exceptionalism.

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!
