The US needed to expand in the late 1800s due to population explosion and the wish for economic expansion in trade with other nations. During this time, Americans came to believe in manifest destiny, that the country was meant to expand from coast to coast. Later, Imperialism became a leading thought in that Americans wanted to influence other countries, and with its powerful resources, it could. The Navy was quickly built up to be the fifth largest in the world at that time.
The two important reasons for American imperialism were the following: * A canal to connect the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean; and * Overseas military bases in places like the Philippines and Guantanamo Bay in Cuba.

Expansion and the creation of new markets are some of the most important goals of the Imperialism. They also wanted to make Christianity stronger.
yes! Imperialism
There is no reason for imperialism other than greed and fear. Since the US never really had to fear any country after the War of 1812 I would have to say fear was not a reason for imperialism!
Because of money reasons
Militarism, Alliance System, imperialism, & nationalism
The same reasons as imperialism anywhere else; money and power. There are always other reasons for people to migrate around the world. Curiosity & exploration, emigrating for a job/land, religious reasons, etc. But IMPERIALISM is not about moving somewhere and enjoying the experience. It is about owning or controlling something that isn't yours.
