Boxer Rebellion 1900. 1990 was the fall of the USSR (Soviet Union) and the end of the Cold War. 1990 was also the year that the deployment of coalition troops to Southwest Asia (Operation Desert Shield) was conducted to prepare for ejecting Saddam Hussian's forces from Kuwait. 1991 was the year that military force (built up forces from Desert Shield) was initiated (Operation Desert Storm) to forcingly remove Iraqi units from Kuwait; which was done within 45 days (Jan/Feb 1991).
The Spanish-American War of '98 transformed the US into an Asian power, due to its acquisition of the Philippines from Spain. An integral part of this responsibility was trade with China (not todays Red China & Taiwan (Nationalist China) back then). In order to retain China's solidarity (union as a nation) from European powers, the US & UK promoted an "open door policy" into China which would continue to allow FREE TRADE with them.
To ENFORCE this policy the US committed itself as part of the "Eight Nation Alliance" to ensure that that policy was protected (enforced).
Translation: To make sure no one (other nations) took advantage of China during the Boxer Rebellion, the US would be present on Chinese soil.
One of the reasons the US was in favor of becoming involved in the Boxer Rebellion was the due to the siege of the American Consulate in Beijing. The US was also part of the Eight-Nation Alliance.
