US asserts itself as a world power because of her economic compatibility and military prowess. Further, US champions the cause of people fighting for democracy any where in the world. There was a balance in power with erstwhile Soviet Union. With their exit,US has become the lone world power. However, with the uprise of China who is flexing her muscles, she will be the toughest competitor of US in the near future both economically and strategically, to retain the world power title. However, since US fights for democracy and China is under communist regime, the choice is obvious for democratic and peace loving people all over the world.

The US started becoming a world power in the mid 1800's particularily after the Civil war with the most powerful military on the planet. Even before that with the Monroe Doctorine. But we do see that with the US caught up in the Civil War this lead to the French intervention in Mexico which led to the Cincho de Mayo celebration. This shows the respect of the world for the US's power. With the Spanish-American War, the USA solidified itself as a world power by crippling the Spanish Empire. By this time, no standing army in the world can go toe-to-toe with the US. This is made possible by the Industrial Revolution and the economic wits the US inherited from their English cousins. please let me know if this answer helped...
