Answer:

To appeal to the sense of nationalism and arouse feelings of patriotism and pride

Step-by-step explanation:

By portraying the United States as a powerful and dominant nation spanning the entire continent, the cartoon aimed to evoke a sense of national pride and reinforce the idea of American exceptionalism. It sought to rally support for the war effort and justify American imperialism by promoting the belief that the United States had a rightful role as a global power.
