How does American imperialism differ from European imperialism?
Japanese imperialism was largely dictated by the wish to control access to commodities and raw materials that Japan itself did not possess. Japan's occupation of the countries it occupied was charactarized by much random cruelty towards the indigenous peoples and a very strong military presence and oppression. Local people were often put to work and treated like slaves.European imperialism (that is, the period between 1880 and 1960) in almost all cases took the form of a minimal presence of "white" officials (although they had the top jobs) , the overwhelming majority of officials, police and army personnel and public servants being recruited from the local population. Only if a colony's location gave it a global or regional strategic importance there might be troops from the motherland stationed there, who were usually encouraged to keep to themselves.Contrary to common perceptions, the 'race for colonies' was largely dictated by considerations of status and power vis-a-vis other European powers and not dictated by the wish to control access to raw materials. At the time (around 1880) demand for them was only a tiny fraction of that of today anyway.Slavery did play a part in European imperialism, but completely different from what you might think. Slavery had been abolished by all European countries by 1860 at the latest, but it still was everywhere in Africa and Asia by the end of the century. In several countries of Africa and Asia a third of the population consisted of slaves, held by their countrymen. One of the first actions after colonizing a country at the end of the 1800's usually was abolishing local slave holding and slave trade.

What were the negatives of American Imperialism?
The negative aspect of imperialism was that a powerful nation could become dependent on a colony they created in an under developed nation.

Military resources were required to keep the benefits of imperialism on going.
Can England keep its flag if it joins the European union?
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (and therefore England) is already a member of the European Union. It joined what was then called the EEC in 1973. Like all countries in the European Union, it has its own flag. The European Union, is an organisation, not a country. It has a flag, like many organisations does, but that is separate to all of the national flags of the members.
What are two ways in which the European Union threatens the sovereignty of its member-states.?
EU law is used in many countries, often in place of a country's own law. Countries are bound by directives made by the EU. Countries using the Euro have to keep with certain economic constraints. Countries are subject to the European Court. So there are lots of ways the EU has influence within a country that is a member that affects a country's decision making.
