How does the United States of America become strong?

The United States is the only superpower and the richest country in the world today, but how did the United States get rich? Throughout the history of the United States, it is not difficult to find that the history of the United States turned out to be a naked history of the war of aggression. The United States started from war and made a fortune by war!

/kloc-At the end of 0/5th century, the United States was once the residence of Indians. Since Columbus discovered the New World, Spain, Holland, France and Britain began to immigrate to North America. By 1773, Britain had 13 colonies. 1775, the war of independence against British colonists broke out in North America. 1776 On July 4th, the United States was proclaimed and Washington became the first president of the United States. Since then, the United States has completely got rid of the rule of British colonists. 1862 in September, President Lincoln announced the The Emancipation Proclamation, which led to the outbreak of the civil war. The victory of the civil war cleared the way for the United States to develop capitalism. /kloc-at the beginning of the 0/9th century, the United States began to expand outward. In less than 100 years, the territory of the United States has almost expanded by 10 times. In the first and second world wars, the United States made a fortune, greatly increased its national strength, and then became the world's largest power.

We say that the United States started by war and prospered by war, which has historical basis. During the 206 years from 1798 to 2003, the United States launched 238 foreign wars, with an average of less than one year, which was shocking! According to the Russian news network, only five of these 238 wars were officially declared war by the Congress, and the rest were declared war under the orders of the President! The history of the American war of aggression can be roughly divided into four stages:

1, killing and plundering the country

In the 300 years since the founding of the United States, there have been more than 100 plundering wars against Indians. Indians are the real masters of this land in America. From 1620 to the 1920s, more than 40 million Indians were killed by white Americans, leaving only more than 200,000 people. In just 300 years, the reason why the United States became the world's number one power turned out to be "killing and looting": the lives of 40 million Indians disappeared, and the land of cities such as Mexico disappeared. The blood of Indians and the land property of Mexico and other countries have become the stars on the Stars and Stripes of the United States of America! This is the bloody history of America!

2. Plunder and invade rich countries

From the end of World War II to the end of 1990, in the past 55 years, the United States has waged as many as 124 overseas wars, thus making the United States a superpower and competing with the Soviet Union for world hegemony.

3. Aggression and plunder dominate the world.

With the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1989, the United States became the only superpower in the world. From 199 1 to the end of 2000, the United States launched and participated in more than 40 overseas wars, and pursued "power politics" and "hegemonism" by force, which is uncompromising in the world.

4. Dominate the world and rob the world resources.

Since the beginning of 2 1 century, the United States has launched the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq under the pretext of "anti-terrorism". Through these wars, it seized the world economic resources, occupied the world military strategic places, further expanded its sphere of influence, and tried its best to safeguard its hegemonic position in the world while gaining economic benefits. However, due to successive economic crises, the United States is facing domestic and foreign troubles, and the economy is facing collapse. In order to pass on the economic crisis and engage in trade protectionism, the dollar depreciated, the renminbi was forced to appreciate, and a large number of currencies were printed, threatening war everywhere to create contradictions, which made the world restless.

The United States started from war and made a fortune by war, so it has special feelings for war. So, how many major wars has the United States launched and participated in since the founding of the People's Republic of China? Excerpts are as follows:

1,1620-1929, there were more than 100 wars to kill Indians, occupying their land and homes and killing 40 million Indians.

2. The Monroe Declaration was published in 1823. The Monroe Declaration has become a tool used by the United States to oppose foreign interference in American affairs, prevent and further exclude the political influence of European powers in the Western Hemisphere, and "separate" the United States and Europe, thus clearing the way for the expansion of the United States in the Western Hemisphere, which is actually equivalent to declaring that the United States belongs to the sphere of influence of the United States;

4. 1844 coerced the Qing government in China to sign the Wang Xia Treaty, and put forward the principle of "benefit sharing". According to the treaty, the United States enjoys most-favored-nation treatment. If China gives some preferential treatment to other countries in the future, the United States should also share it. The Wang Xia Treaty is a heavy yoke imposed on the people of China, and it has become a model for the imperialist powers to sign unequal treaties with China.

Make the United States have strong economic and military strength, thus establishing a strong navy;

12,1939-1945 participated in the anti-fascist campaign against Germany, Italy and Japan; It provided weapons and materials for anti-fascist countries, became the arsenal of allies, prospered in wartime economy, and established the status of the US dollar as the world currency.

30. Nowadays, in international affairs, double guarantees are implemented, Iran and North Korea are sanctioned, military exercises are held everywhere, and threats of force are used to create discord in the Middle East, Europe and Asia, which makes the world restless and profits from it.

To sum up, it is not difficult for us to see that all wars launched and participated by the United States are unjust wars of aggression and plunder except the War of Independence and World War II. Here are just some military wars in which the United States uses guns, guns, people and fire, not including its wars of economic aggression, political blackmail and cultural corruption against people all over the world.

In this way, the United States made a windfall by war in World War I and World War II, which brought the so-called "American century" and made the United States rise to become a world superpower and a world hegemon.

After World War II, the United States has a military presence almost all over the world, and it has established 5,000 military bases around the world (nearly half of which are overseas). After the end of the Cold War, the number of American military bases has been greatly reduced due to the changes in the international situation, the adjustment of American military strategy and the opposition of the people in the host countries. At present, there are 374 overseas military bases in the United States, distributed in 140 countries and regions, with 300,000 troops; There are 87/kloc-0 local bases, including 242 naval bases and 384 air bases.

The United States has established so many military bases and stationed so many troops in so many countries. What is this? Is it for world peace? Or for the sake of world harmony, let people all over the world live a happy life? Neither! The United States wants to be the world hegemon, be the world policeman, safeguard its hegemonic position in the world, always be ready to interfere in other countries' internal affairs, plunder other countries' economic resources and construction achievements naked, undermine world peace, make the people of the world restless, and make all countries in the world its colonies.

From the founding of the United States to dominating the world, the history of the United States is a naked history of aggression. This is not surprising. The basic contradiction of capitalist society is socialized mass production and private possession, and its essence is exploitation and plunder. Capitalism will inevitably become imperialism when it develops into monopoly stage. In order to solve the insurmountable economic crisis, imperialism will wage war, and imperialism is the source of the war. World War I and World War II took place when imperialism competed for world resources. Looking at the history of the United States from prosperity to world domination, its various manifestations and strategic intentions, we can easily see that the United States is taking this road of war, and it is getting farther and farther and faster. In order to get rid of this unprecedented serious economic crisis, political crisis, dollar crisis and hegemonic crisis, the United States must pass on the crisis by war, which is determined by the essence of imperialism. The United States is the source of war and the main source of world war today. This is the inevitable result of the expansion of American monopoly capitalism and hegemonism to the imperialist stage. People all over the world must unite, be vigilant, lose their illusions and get ready for battle! We will crush the war of aggression launched by American imperialism and its lackeys with a just people's war! Peace-loving people all over the world unite and justice will eventually win! The people will win!
