Write an essay analyzing its role in President Theodore Roosevelt's goal of establishing America
and its Navy as a world power. Use evidence from the passage to support your
response.

Since the end of the first world war, the USA has established itself once and for all as a great power that would not be easily defeated by anything. The rise of the USA was notable and its influence and power grew more and more each day.

In the midst of so much prosperity, the United States also cultivated enmities that would seek to attack it in every way possible. This increased the need to establish a strong defense that would protect America from adverse attacks. One way to do this was to modernize and empower the national navy, which in addition to being able to protect the United States efficiently, reaffirmed the country as the world's greatest power, both economically and militarily.

Although other presidents helped to empower the navy, it was Roosevelt who made it a symbol of US power, as a way to frighten enemies and stimulate social, political alliances with other nations and generate a strong and imposing reputation.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
