Iwould appreciate it! okay, pls do not write an essay. i just want the answer to the question, and i want to find out what website/page i can go to, so i can learn more about it. that would be great. thx a famous quote by president theodore roosevelt was an old african proverb: “speak softly and carry a big stick.” roosevelt felt that the “big stick” was action. in an essay of approximately 500 words, explain how the imperialistic attitude of the united states fit the meaning of the proverb. be sure to cite specific examples.

refers to U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt's foreign policy:

Imperialism means to expand a county's power by political or military means, and the big stick proverb means that one should be non aggressive but hold the power to be violent, just like 'an iron fist under a velvet glove'. Imperialistic America after the Spanish American war, America annexed the Philippines because imperialists believed it would be an ideal port and military base. Puerto Rico was also made an American territory, and though Cuba was 'free' its government was still basically controlled by America. These were all expansions made to make America larger and more powerful even though imperialism led to consistent involvement in foreign affairs.
