National Security: the colonized island country has deepwater ports for refueling the mother country's navy and merchant marine. it also has an airfield. Is imperialism in this case justified, sometimes justified, or never justified and why.

Imperialism is never justified.

Explanation:

In the question above we see that there is a country that has deep water ports and an airfield. These two factors are elements that generate wealth for that country and that belongs to the national territory. In this case, it is not justified that another country, out of greed, uses its influence and strength to dominate these elements through imperialism, exploiting foreign wealth for its own growth, while the country that owns that wealth is devalued.

by 1890, the united states had by far the world's most productive economy. american industry produced twice as much as its closest competitor--britain. but the united states was not a great military or diplomatic power. its army numbered less than 30,000 troops, and its navy had only about 10,000 seamen. britain's army was five times the size of its american counterpart, and its navy was ten times bigger. the united states' military was small because the country was situated between two large oceans and was surrounded by weak or friendly nations. it faced no serious military threats and had little interest in asserting military power overseas.
