Warm-Up “Every empire seeks as its imperialistic mission not to plunder and control but to educate and liberate.” “The truth is that imperialism was never idealistic. It has always been driven by economic or strategic interests” Which of these passages do you find to be the most true? Why?

Imperialism Policy by which strong nations extend their political, military, and economic control over weaker territories US time period 1865-1914

CAUSES FOR IMPERIALISM Business/economic interests Military/strategic interests “White Man’s Burden”- spread of Democracy and Christianity; related to Manifest Destiny, Social Darwinism New territories = more opportunity (Remember Frederick Jackson Turner?)

Business/Economic Interest Colonies can provide raw materials and natural resources Rubber, sugar, tea, iron, petroleum, timber Foreign trade-new markets

Types of Imperialism Sphere of Influence– area which an outside power claimed exclusive investment/economic interest or trading rights. Protectorate—area where local rulers were left in place but were expected to follow the advice of the dominated outside powers Colony—An area ruled directly by a dominate outside power.

ALFRED T. MAHAN Military historian/U.S. Navy officer Called “the most important American strategist of the 19th century” The Influence of Sea Power Upon History- emphasized the need for a strong navy, acquire Hawaii, an isthmian canal and other Pacific Islands
