Do we still use the washington and monroe foreign policy today?

the neutrality acts were passed by the united states congress in the 1930s, in response to the growing turmoil in europe and asia that eventually led to world war ii. they were spurred by the growth in isolationism and non-interventionism in the us following its costly involvement in world war i, and sought to ensure that the us would not become entangled again in foreign conflicts.

the legacy of the neutrality acts is widely regarded as having been generally negative: they made no distinction between aggressor and victim, treating both equally as "belligerents"; and they limited the us government's ability to aid britain and france against nazi germany. the acts were largely repealed in 1941, in the face of german submarine attacks on u.s. vessels and the japanese attack on pearl harbor.

the crusades are one of the most significant events in the history of europe and the middle east.   they were a series of religious wars carried out by christian crusaders from europe during the timeframe of the middle ages.   beginning in 1095 ce, the crusades saw european knights and noblemen travel to the middle east in an attempt to capture the holy land away from muslim people that had controlled the region for the previous centuries.   the term crusade means ‘cross’.   therefore, the europeans that became crusaders viewed themselves as ‘taking up the cross’.   in fact, many of the crusaders wore crosses on their clothing and armor as they made their pilgrimage to the holy land.
