Compare As with the Europeans, the USA would go to other less developed places of the world and exploit their resources.
Both relied on large fleets to maintain their domain.
The United States needed LOTS of resources in order to fuel their ever growing economy. So too did Europe to advance the development of their colonies, economies, and also the fleets that were their backbone.
European and US Imperialism exhibited the same basic points that make up imperialism, the need for:
Military strength,
economic power,
and territory control.
As well as competition between each nation for these resources.
Contrast
US imperialism kicked off after slavery was abolished, so the slave trade was more a European thing during the colonial period. The US had slavery earlier, but that is not part of the US imperialistic age.
The US started off with much more technology than Europe did at the colonial period.
Britain controlled a great deal of the world back then as colonies, the US however relied more on economic domination.
(if anyone can add to this, it would be very much appreciated.) :)

US imperialism focused more on economic dominance and open-door policies in regions like Latin America and Asia, while European imperialism was characterized by more direct political control and colonial rule. Additionally, US imperialism was often justified as bringing democracy and progress to supposedly "backward" nations, in contrast to the paternalistic and more overtly racist attitudes of European imperial powers.
