The U.S. annexed Hawaii in 1893 and divided control over Samoa with Germany in 1899 to establish overseas bases. The Spanish-American War in 1898 provided an opportunity to take Spanish colonies like Cuba and the Philippines, helping the U.S. become a world power with possessions across the Pacific.

Chapter 11 Section 5
The United States entered the War of 1812 at a disadvantage with a weak, unprepared military and few naval ships. While its goal was to conquer Canada, three separate invasions failed. In 1813, the Americans won some battles in Canada. As British troops fought in Canada, they invaded Washington D.C. and burned the city. They then moved to Baltimore but were repulsed. In 1815, British forces invaded New Orleans and were decisively defeated by Andrew Jackson, though the war had already ended due to slow communications. The Treaty of Ghent ended the war without territorial changes but the young nation gained new respect.
The War Of 1812 Apush
The document summarizes the key causes and events of the War of 1812 between the United States and Britain. The war was sparked by British interference with American shipping and support of Native American resistance to American expansion. While the US launched unsuccessful invasions of Canada, they gained control of the Great Lakes with a naval victory. Later, the British invaded Washington D.C. and burned public buildings, but their invasion of New York was stopped. The war ended in a stalemate with the Treaty of Ghent in 1814, though Andrew Jackson later defeated a British force at New Orleans in 1815.
Roots of imperialism
The document outlines several factors that contributed to the rise of American imperialism in the late 19th century, including economic and military motivations. It discusses how the US expanded its influence through acquiring Alaska, gaining a sphere of influence in Latin America, and annexing Hawaii. The Spanish-American War is described as a major turning point where the US took control of Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines after defeating Spain, sparking debates around American imperialism.

The document summarizes several topics in US history from the War of 1812 to the California Gold Rush. The War of 1812 was fought between the US and Britain and resulted in the reaffirmation of American independence. This led to a rise in American nationalism and confidence. The Monroe Doctrine warned European powers not to interfere in the Western Hemisphere. The Indian Removal Act and Trail of Tears forced Native American tribes westward. The Mexican American War resulted in the US acquiring Texas, New Mexico, and California from Mexico under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. In 1849, the California Gold Rush drew thousands of prospectors seeking wealth after gold was discovered at Sutter's Mill.

French and Indian War to Statehoood
- During the Second Spanish Period, Spain's hold on Florida was tenuous and it never stood a chance against America's expansionist appetite.
- From 1764-1783, Florida experienced two decades of British rule where it was split into two colonies - East and West Florida. The British colonies enjoyed economic growth and development that exceeded the Spanish during the previous 200 years.
- After the American Revolution, East Florida remained loyal to Britain and saw its population grow while West Florida was taken by Spain in 1781. Florida then reverted to Spanish control, though Spain took an economic approach to try and maintain its colonies.
Spanish American War
The Spanish American War was caused by American sympathy for Cuban rebels fighting for independence from Spanish rule, America's interest in expanding its influence outlined in the Monroe Doctrine, and economic interests in Cuban sugar plantations. Yellow journalism in American newspapers exaggerated Spanish atrocities and stirred up pro-war sentiment, culminating in calls for war after the mysterious sinking of the USS Maine. The war resulted in Spain losing control of Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, with Cuba gaining nominal independence as a US protectorate and the others becoming US territories.

The United States began expanding its overseas interests in the mid-19th century. In 1853, Commodore Perry opened trade with Japan after sailing a warship into Tokyo Bay. The US later purchased Alaska from Russia in 1867. By the late 1800s, expansionists argued that overseas expansion was needed to promote economic growth and spread American values. This contributed to the US gaining control over Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines after defeating Spain in the Spanish-American War of 1898, making the US an imperial power.
