Compare and contrast 20th century united states foreign policy goals prior to wwii with those after wwii.

The correct answer is the following.

Before World War II, the United States focused its expansionist policies on expanding its territories to create a stronger country. The United States was not a major imperialist nation as it was Spain of the United Kingdom, but indeed fought wars against Spain in the Spanish-American War for the Philippines and the island of Cuba. After the U.S. participation in World War 1, the United States changed its foreign policy and decided to isolate themselves from the world. It refused to participate in the League of Nations and focused mainly on U.S. issues. Then it came the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, and the U.S. military was not strong enough to respond alone to the attacks. He joined the Allied Forces with Great Britain and the Soviet Union to fight the Power Axis.

After World War II, the United States modified its foreign policy 180 grades. It was the leading nation in forming the United Nations, formed NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) to protect its interest and those from its allies, and supported the Marshall Plan to help reconstruct damaged European nations after the war. During the Cold War period, the U.S. tried to stop the spread of Communism in many regions of the world, including strategic territories in Central and South America. After the 9/11 attacks, the U.S. strengthen its combat to terrorism, created Homeland security and permanently look for its interest in the Middle East.

WWII started and ended September 1, 1939 – September 2, 1945Germany had suffered heavy losses during the war, both in lives and industrial power. 6.9 to 7.5 million Germans had been killed, roughly 8.26 to 8.86% of the population (see also World War II casualties). ... As a result, the population density grew in the "new" Germany that remained after the dismemberment.  

The USMC opened its doors to blacks in June 1942, with the acceptance of African Americans as recruits in segregated all-black units. Other races were accepted somewhat more easily, joining white Marine units.  

During World War II, African-Americans formed 10 per cent of US Army servicemen in Britain, a total of about 150,000 in 1944. Most were in labour companies, engineers, stevedores and transport units. Many were based in the Bristol area because of the docks there.  

Germany had suffered heavy losses during the war, both in lives and industrial power. 6.9 to 7.5 million Germans had been killed, roughly 8.26 to 8.86% of the population (see also World War II casualties). ... As a result, the population density grew in the "new" Germany that remained after the dismemberment.  

The aftermath of World War II was the beginning of a new era for all countries involved, defined by the decline of all European colonial empires and simultaneous rise of two superpowers: the Soviet Union (USSR) and the United States (USA).  

After World War II both West Germany and East Germany were obliged to pay war reparations to the Allied governments, according to the Potsdam Conference. First provisionally but later finally, Germany ceded a quarter of its territory as defined by its 1937 borders to Poland and the Soviet Union.  

The Marshall Plan (officially the European Recovery Program, ERP) was an American initiative passed in 1948 for foreign aid to Western Europe. ...

This still left Germany with debts it had incurred in order to finance the reparations, and these were revised by the Agreement on German External Debts in 1953. After another pause pending the reunification of Germany, the last installment of these debt repayments was paid on 3 October 2010.  

On 31 December 2006, Britain made a final payment of about $83m (£45.5m) and thereby discharged the last of its war loans from the US. By the end of World War II Britain had amassed an immense debt of £21 billion.  

France was defeated and had to sign an armistice with Nazi Germany on June 22, 1940. ... After four years of occupation and strife, Allied forces, including Free France, liberated France in 1944.
