Answer 2

The correct answer is: A movement towards American Imperialism.

American Imperialism is defined as the cultural, economic and military influence of the United States internationally. This term was developed in the late nineteenth century, a time better known as the Age of Imperialism because The United States quickly expanded their territorial possessions.
