For most of its early history, the United States played a small role in world affairs. But in the late 1800s, some of America's leaders called for the nation to join the ranks of the world's major powers. As a result, the United States began to acquire influence and territories outside its continental borders. The country was abandoning isolationism and emerging as a new power on the global stage.
