The Mississippi River has historically been extremely important for the growth of the United States. Since it connects such large parts of the US, it was used for trade and ships would go through it all the time with goods which was great for the economy. Goods could also come to New Orleans from Europe and be taken north all the way as up as Minnesota.

The two oceans were very beneficial in various ways to the United States. For example, the large bodies of water could be used as natural defense against foreign incursions since in early colony days it was not possible to sustain an army that would have to attack the US. They were also great source of resources such as food. Whaling was historically particularly important for the development of the regions around the oceans.

The great plains have historically been really important for the economy because it was the primary area in which cattle ranching was developed. Because of the vast fields cattle could be grown there easily and in large numbers and this are provided food for most of the United States while also benefiting the economy from successful business endeavors.

Abundant natural resources make it possible for the United States to manufacture goods and to also trade with other nations. Since the US has so many various things, from food to minerals to mines to pretty much anything, they are self-sufficient to themselves and don't have to rely on trading partners if they don't want to.

an empire is a sovereign state functioning as an aggregate of nations or people that are ruled over by an emperor or another kind of monarch. the territory and population of an empire is commonly of greater extent than the one of a kingdom.[1]

an empire can be made solely of contiguous territories, such as the austro-hungarian empire or the russian empire, or of territories far remote from the homeland, such as a colonial empire. aside from the more formal usage, the word empire can also refer colloquially to a large-scale business enterprise (e.g. a transnational corporation), a political organisation controlled by a single individual (a political boss), or a group (political bosses).[2] the word empire is associated with such other words as imperialism, colonialism, and globalization. empire is often used to describe a displeasure to overpowering situations.[3]
