Yes, the United States is still an imperialistic superpower. The concept of American imperialism refers to the economic, military, and cultural influence the United States has on the rest of the world. As a leading world superpower, the US very well still has a presence of authority in other nations. By Act of Congress, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and Puerto Rico are all considered US territories and under US jurisdiction.
I think the answer to this question is "YES", because China is already ruling the world by its manufectures.People are using China's meterials all over the globe. I think there will be a time when China wil be in aleading position.
I dont think that it really did. Although the U.S. was involved with the Versailles treaty and the war it wasn't until WWII that the U.S. became a 'superpower'. Look at the size of the US military..we were still rather small at this point.
The U.S. economy had not been destroyed by fighting during WW2.
MAD- Mutually Assured Destruction with the use of nuclear weapons to wipe out two superpower countries, US and the USSR
The US was considered a superpower after World War II, when the European powers declined, partly because of the loss of their colonies to independence movements. The war similarly sparked the advance of the Soviet Union to superpower status, and the Maoist takeover did the same for China. Whether the US currently shares superpower status with China is debatable, but China does not yet have an equal international presence. China (and most of Asia) has benefitted substantially from trade with the United States. The beginning of US worldwide influence dates from the Spanish American War, which brought it the Philippines and increased trade in the Pacific.
Unable to tell if you are referring to The American Revolution or World War 2. The Brits retained the superpower status after the American Revolution and The War of 1812. The United Kingdom lost their superpower status after World War 2 when the US and USSR took the superpower status.

The US does not try to be in other countries' business. The US acts as a global police force merely because it is the world's only superpower and feels a duty to try to establish world peace. The UK also acts as a global police force, mainly because of its past superpower status in addition to being the US's main ally.
The status of the US on an economical and military scale made it the only world's superpower in 1945. However, that status was an artificial one in that the US' economy and war production powers were based on the geo-political status the US enjoyed. As time would soon reveal, nations such as the Soviet Union would soon become members of the superpowers class of nations. And, prior to WW 2, the UK was the world's top superpower. This was based partly on its worldwide colonies and its navy. In 1945, as a victor in WW 2, there was no clear evidence that the UK would have to give up its "empire". If the Commonwealth had continued, the UK would be a rival to both the US and the USSR.
The US built it, but was not quite a superpower at the time. The US and USSR became superpowers a few years after the war.
The US turned into a superpower
The US grew greatly in global influence in the 19th century and became a superpower in the 20th century. The US is still a superpower in the 21st century.
After the Cold War, the United States emerged as the world's leading superpower. Even as a superpower, the US cannot enforce all of its policies on the rest of the countries in the world.
US and USSR
Make love, not war. Is the USA really a superpower? It should have twice of its current military power to be considered a superpower, taking on account that......
