Which statement about the American military in World War I is NOT true?
American imperialists often rationalized actions by
Major outcomes of Spanish-American...
C.
To find the answer to the first question, you can analyze each option and eliminate the ones that are not major outcomes of the Spanish-American War.
Option A, "the establishment of an extensive American empire," is a major outcome of the Spanish-American War. The United States gained territories such as Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines.
Option B, "the emergence of the nation's status as a world power," is also a major outcome of the war. The United States demonstrated its military capabilities and asserted its presence on the world stage.
Option C, "the reluctance of the government to get involved in other foreign conflicts," is not a major outcome of the Spanish-American War. In fact, the war marked the beginning of a more interventionist foreign policy for the United States.
Option D, "the beginning of a new period of opportunity and problems in foreign policy," is a general statement and can be interpreted as a major outcome of the war. However, it is not as specific as options A and B, which directly result from the war.
Therefore, the correct answer to the first question is C. The reluctance of the government to get involved in other foreign conflicts is not a major outcome of the Spanish-American War.
To find the answer to the second question, you can evaluate each president's term in office and assess their impact on America's growth as an international power.
Grover Cleveland served two non-consecutive terms as President, from 1885-1889 and 1893-1897. Although he did not actively pursue an expansionist foreign policy, his presidency did not coincide with America's significant growth as an international power.
William McKinley served as President from 1897-1901. His presidency witnessed the Spanish-American War and subsequent territorial acquisitions, marking a significant period of America's growth as an international power. Therefore, option B is correct.
Benjamin Harrison served as President from 1889-1893. While he enacted some foreign policies, his presidency did not coincide with the same level of growth and expansion as McKinley's term.
Rutherford B. Hayes served as President from 1877-1881. Although his presidency occurred before the Spanish-American War and subsequent expansion, he did oversee the end of Reconstruction and other domestic issues without significant international impact.
Therefore, the correct answer to the second question is B. William McKinley served during America's growth as an international power.
