Write a two-or three- paragraph journal entry reflecting on U. S. foreign policy during the long 19th century (1776-1914). Your journal entry should explain why you think U. S. foreign policy changed- or did not change- over time and specifically address how expansionism, the Monroe Doctrine, nationalism, and increased global power influenced the role of the United States in the world during this period. Conclude your journal entry with a prediction about the role the United States will play in world affairs during the 20th century. Clarifying questions:
•How did expansionism change the United States role in the world?
•How did the Monroe Doctrine affect relations between the United States and Latin America?
•How did ideas about nationalism affect the way U. S. leaders saw the United States role in world affairs?
•How might the U. S. role as an economic power affect its position in the world during the 20th century?
