The Monroe Doctrine, a policy of the United States introduced on December 2, 1823, expressed the idea, among other important foreign policy objectives, that new countries should be allowed to develop without interference from stronger nations. It stated that future efforts by European nations to colonize land or interfere with states in North or South America would be viewed as acts of aggression (USDS Basic Readings). Some of the major events that caused President James Monroe and his secretary of state, John Quincy Adams to develop this Doctrine concerned South American countries and their newly achieved independence. „The end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815 marked the breakup of the Spanish empire in the New World. Between 1815 and 1822 Jose de San Martin led Argentina to independence, while Bernardo O'Higgins in Chile and Simon Bolivar in Venezuela guided their countries out of colonialism.
Division of the English In the early colonization of the New World, many different European colonists began to settle all throughout the Atlantic coastline which would later be divided into three regions or colonies which were the New England, Middle, and Southern colonies. After going to war and flustering the Native Americans out of their own homeland, the primary origin begin to settle in, particularly between the New England colony (Massachusetts) and Chesapeake Bay (Southern colony/Virginia), and which at the time the primary descent of these colonists were in fact English spread all throughout the entire area. As time grew on, settlers began to establish governments, economies, and social classes and religion all throughout their particular
I picked this book since Netanyahu covers a very well detailed historical background about the origins of the Spanish inquisition; which provides the main sources of my first point of the essay. Another source cited is the “The Spanish Inquisition, a History” by Joseph Perez and translated by Janet Lloyd, published in 2005. The information obtain out this book refers to the specific groups who were mostly affected within inquisitorial Spain, such groups were the Jews, and the Muslims, etc, who were removed from the Spaniard society by the Catholics Kings and the pope of that time. My second point of this essay is based on these ethnic groups. An additional source that I chose for my analysis was the “The Spanish Inquisition and the Inquisitorial Mind” by Angel Alcala.
Colonization refers strictly to migration, for example, to settler colonies, trading posts, and plantations, while colonialism deals with this, along with ruling the existing indigenous peoples of styled "new territories".

Lorent Taylor Mrs. Rosen AP US History Period 6 1/1/2014 DBQ American expansionism in the late 19th century and early 20th century was, to a large extent, a continuation of past United States expansionism, while also departing with previous expansionism in some aspects. During the period of time between the late 19th century and early 20th century, America was going through significant changes. After a revolution in Cuba against the Spanish, as well as the Americans starting the Spanish-American War, the Americans received several territorial concessions from their defeated opponent. Thus, America started on the path to imperialism, gaining several more territories in a short amount of time. Such an expansion in the late 19th century and early 20th century was mostly a continuation of past United States expansionism, such as that in the West after the Louisiana Purchase and Mexican-American War.
But in our history it is important to realize that it may not be one of these causes, but a combination of all of them that created the conditions that began our civil war. In examining history, it is important to look at more than any single cause of an event, and in looking at the development of the English colonies in the new world, it is equally important to try to understand all of the reasons why the colonies developed into entirely different societies. When we examine the English colonies in New England and Chesapeake, we see that although they were settled largely by people of English origin, by 1700 the regions had separated into two distinct societies because of their geographies, the reasons why the colonies were settled, and the differences in beliefs and values held by the colonists. The Chesapeake and New England region both developed differently due to their geography. Chesapeake’s geography forced a large social stratification to build, fostered a need for slaves, and a sense of disconnection.
Donalvin Weatherby August 16, 2011 U.S. History Hour 7 Differences in Colonization In the early years after Columbus’ “discovery” of America European countries felt the urge to settle in this new area. They hoped to find new resources and expand their own empires in these lands. The three major empires trying to utilize this area were France, Spain, and England but they all had different ways of colonization. In this paper I will tell you the similarity and differences between each country’s different styles of colonization. I also will tell of the country’s different relationships with the Natives.

American Expansionism As the nineteenth century was coming to a close, the United States faced some choices that would affect our society for decades to come. Before the 1890's, the United States was fixated on maintaining and possibly expanding its borders. This time, became known as the new "Manifest Destiny". It focused on acquiring land separate from the continental United States. Just like many European powers prior to the 20th century, the United States looked at how the new world was developing.
