Topics In Diplomatic And Military History

Catalog description

Beginning as a relatively small nation of thirteen states tied to the East Coast of North America, the United States rapidly ascended to a position of global preeminence through aggressive territorial expansion and through a series of military engagements. The policies and 249 processes involved left a profound impact on the lives of those affected and on the course of world history. This class offers a deep examination of one aspect of U.S. Diplomatic or Military History to illuminate the causes and consequences of the United States’ rise to superpower status.
