America has shaped the World before today. Americans was the first country to reject monarchy and declare themselves democracy after defeating one of the most powerful country during that time (Britain). In the 20th century Britain world power failed to America and Britain monarchy became the least favorite of the world. America democracy also go back to the Founding Fathers. They help implement laws that govern the USA that other countries try to mimic. America is the overall leading country because America is the most powerful, militarily and economically.
The United States accomplishment didn’t start off to reach this level of dominance. They were just trying to defend themselves and their friends against the Soviet Union (beauchamp, 2014).

America has the power to make the human race become what it is capable of becoming. America believe in making the World produce for the better instead of tyranny. For example if China was to become the leading country the country probably would shift to autocracy. The Chinese don 't really value an open economy. The Chinese economy soon may become the largest in the world, but it will be far from the richest (Kagan, 2012, p.21). Its size is a product of the country 's enormous population, but in per capita terms, China remains relatively poor (Kagan, 2012, p.21). China believe in keeping the rich, rich and the poor, poor. American economic governance has been accepted by majority of the world because America has always made money for companions. China’s system focus on the government wealth so they can compete with other great powers by putting the capital in armies and navies.
Americans certainly like to believe that their desired order survives because it is right and just—not only for Americans but for everyone (Kagan, 2012). America believe that the accomplishment of democracy is a better idea and the triumph of market capitalism is the victory of a better system, and that both are permanent. If and when

The building was standing and we were shaken but alive" (165). They started their way down on the eighty-seventh floor and made it until the thirty-third floor before they all knew what really happened. Later realizing that because they were calm and pulled together as a team, democracy won. " Today the images the people around the world equate with power and democracy are gone, but "America" is not an image, it is a concept.
united states the world power in oil, finance and communication. Robber Barons know what they are doing is wrong but they do not care for the society, they care only for money. These people had made a huge decision and changed America forever. When many workers suffered a poor standard of living and in terrible housing, Robber Barons were living a luxurious life and enjoyed their life. They made their workers work Christmas and holidays.
During the end of nineteenth century and the beginning of twentieth, America developed fast even passed over the Great Britain and France, those classic capitalism countries. What caused America became powerful at that time? The social economy and natural geographic location. These two elements interact each other. Social economy included the social system, political system, industrial development and every economic environment.
We as Americans wanted capitalism to spread throughout the world, and were ready to retaliate any country that stood in the
America. A country known to be one of a kind as it inspired a rise in democracy and freedom for countries colonized by others. Because of its history, America has continually aided those in need, fighting for self-determination and the end of imperialism. By fighting wars over these ideals, America earned the reputation of being a savior. However, the Vietnam War tested America’s display of heroism as northern Vietnam fought to be communist and southern Vietnam citizens tried to find solace in other countries.
As Americans, we often pride ourselves on our strength. Our grandfathers survived the Great Depression and stormed the beaches of Normandy, and they did not complain. This refusal to retreat from a tough challenge is what makes us great as a nation. And as a result of our strength, we are natural leaders. As the world’s superpower, America has an obligation to lead the world in terms of ideas.
The definition of greatness is, "chief or preeminent over others; remarkable in magnitude, degree, or effectiveness; markedly superior in character or quality". Is America preeminent over others? Perhaps, but so are nations like China, Russia, France, and the United Kingdom. Is it remarkable in magnitude and effectiveness?
There are far too many parallels between ancient Rome and modern America. It seems as if many people do not care enough about the path our country is headed down. Ethics and values have gone out the window, the government has doomed the working class, people have become violent, people are acting without fully thinking and war is constant. America needs a change before it is too late. Ethics and values have merely disappeared but when they are present they seem to be hypocritical.
American imperialism is economically, socially, and politically damaging to countries, as well as costly for America. Furthermore, it infringes upon national sovereignty and the right to self-governance. Historical cases have shown the detrimental repercussions America has repeatedly caused. The few cases of success should not undermine the calamitous effects American neo-imperialism has caused. The United States should cede its colonies and stop intervening in the affairs of other nations.
The United States had for years been improving and growing rapidly. Away from the other world powers in Europe, they were able to avoid their conflicts for a long time, but that changed. America got involved in World War One and it affected some of their advancements. U.S imperialism was able to thrive in WWI, with America using the power to expand their empire. American progressivism however, fell between the cracks and disappeared for a long while during and after the war.
For America to truly be a leader and someone countries to look up to American citizens need to become aware of how America handles business overseas and stand up when the government is acting out of
The United States of America has never been anything but an empire. The first European settlers came to the land as a colony and even after gaining independence, did nothing but push west while murdering and displacing millions of natives. All that mattered was the country gaining and keeping power. The mindset of the American
America is a superpower both military and politically.in the future I see America’s military being stronger than ever. It will have the power to do anything. Were pioneers in democracy and led on other countries to be democratic which in all cases is good. But America in my sense of the future since it already is a world power would be dangerous.
Superpowers are not simply powerful, they are dominant. Superpowers are economically, socially, culturally and militarily dominant. America is a country that has enough military, and economic strength to make other nations think twice before taking actions
