What is IMPERIALISM Imperialism-the actions used by 1 nation to exercise political or economic control over a smaller or weaker nation. *In other words, being a bully!!!

Who do the bullies muscle? The imperialistic nations (the bullies) muscle the weaker nations (the protectorates). Protectorate=a country that is technically independent but is actually under the control of another country. ***The senior bully & lil’ freshman**

How do you become a imperial power? *Build a very strong military *Have a way of getting your military all over the world *****NAVY****** *************Even better, a very fast navy, faster than anyone else!!!!!!

Wind powered

Strong & fast navy In the 1850s, the United States passed Britain in becoming fastest, strongest navy. How did they do it???? *STEAM POWER took over for mother nature powered ships (wind & sails)

Steam ships

Commodore Perry

Perry scares the Japanese

Use your navy for 2 things? 1.Protection = strong navy keeps enemies from invading us. 2.Economy = use the navy to explore and find regions that will help our economy grow through trade and production.

Imperialism Being imperialistic then is using the navy to exert our will on weaker countries. 2 choices for the weaker nation: be a friend or foe, either way America will still get what we want (NAVY, STEAM, BIG GUNS)

Peaceful imperialism Use the navy and other Americans to convince nations to be like us, and listen to us, in exchange for protection and $$$. Trade, production of goods (products)

Less peaceful imperialism If necessary, use the force of the navy to exert our will by replacing un-willing leaders with more cooperative one’s. “Listen to us or I’ll blow you up!!!!!!!!”
