Wow! You’re serious.. okay. Well here is the definition of a “Imperialist” nation would be:
“ The extension of a nation's authority by territorial acquisition or by the establishment of economic and political dominance over other nations.”
Okay - so let’s look at the larger wars and how much “territorial acquisition” or “economic and political dominance” we’ve done as a nation in the last - let’s say 100 years.
World War 1 - No US territories acquired through conquest of Europe, Africa, Asia; still have their own political structure and economy
World War 2 - No US territories acquired through conquest of Europe, Africa, Asia; still have their own political structure and economy
Korean War - No US territories acquired through conquest of Korea; still have their own political structure and economy
Vietnam War - No US territories acquired through conquest of Vietnam; still have their own political structure and economy
Gulf War - No US territories acquired through conquest of the Middle East; still have their own political structure and economy
F**k it, tired of the copy and paste.
You understand yet, or?
