Explanation:

The US changed deeply its policy from isolationism into imperialism around the 19th century. Industrialization in the US created the necessity to seek new international markets to sell American goods.

The US started to control countries such as the Philippines, Cuba, Germany, Austria, Korea, Hawaii, and Japan.
