The U.S. government ruled directly or put US followers in power in these nations. The philippines Guam Cuba Hawaii Panama California area 23 Latin American countries Between the Spanish-American War and the start of the Great Depression the U.S. sent troops to different Latin American countries 23 times. The U.S. wanted to other throw the "tyrants" and "free" the people. After the goverments were overthrown, the U.S. picked U.S. supporters to lead so that the U.S. gov could have a say in what's going on.

    Doesn't matter. If that was the case the British empire would have been significantly smaller. They did not directly rule every (as in most) nations. Also the Mayan empire would have never been a empire if that's how it worked. Its pretty evident that the U.S. did have a empire. If you don't want to believe that, that's fine by me. Youre right, the US never ruled Hawaii, Cuba, California, Panam, or the Philippines. [spoiler]sarcasm[/spoiler]

  • It seems like your definition of an empire is different from the English meaning for that word.

  • All I know about the Mayans that they were a civilization that was in Mexico, I didn't know much about, so if you do than by all means go ahead and enlighten me.
