Unit V Discussion Guide Part 1 The American Colossus The United States wanted to expand as other empires were to add to their factor of masculinity. The Great Rapprochement led to foreign policies aligned with Great Britain in order to keep the peace. The U.S. was guilty of becoming what the rebelled from because while they fought to be left alone and independent, they took that from Hawaii. I would support the interpretation because Spain proved that they were not responsible for the engine explosion and offered to pay for it anyways. Regardless, the U.S. Pushed for war.
