The U.S. employed isolationism primarily in the late 19th century, focusing on domestic issues and avoiding entanglement in foreign conflicts. However, as the nation grew economically and militarily, it shifted towards expansionism, seeking to extend its influence through territorial acquisitions such as Alaska and Hawaii. By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Imperialism became prevalent, exemplified by the Spanish-American War, which resulted in the U.S. acquiring Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, reflecting a desire to project power and compete globally. This blend of policies shaped America's role on the world stage, balancing between withdrawal and assertive engagement.
