(Pro 23:10) Remove not the old

landmark; and enter not into the

fields of the fatherless:

• ACTIVITY:

• Have one student represent a bully nation.

• Pick three students who represent weaker nations.

• Stronger student would go to the weak nation and command them to give them their most precious resource (oil, gold, rubber, people, etc.)

Imperialism

o The policy by which the

strong nations extend

their political, military, and

economic control over

weaker territories.

o Often times making

weaker nations the

stronger nation’s colony.

Reasons for Imperialism

• Desire for raw materials and natural resources (Europe and Japan)

• These were called extractive colonies.

• The imperial country extracted or removed raw materials from the colony and shipped them to the home country.

• Possessing more colonies gave nations an edge in gaining more global resources (Competition).

Reasons for Imperialism

• The U.S. had vast natural resources and did not need raw materials.

• The U.S. had a vast surplus of goods and commodities.

• Not enough buyers within the U.S. to buy these products (domestic consumption).

• The U.S. need to sell these goods overseas.

Need For Military Strength:

• Roosevelt wanted the U.S. to be a world

power.

• In order to be a imperialist power a

nation must build up their military.

• Alfred T. Mahan, a military historian and

U.S. Naval officer believed that great

nations had powerful navies.

• Mahan transformed the U.S. into a naval

power.

Need For Military Strength:

• Mahan called upon the U.S. to build a modern

fleet.

• And the U.S. needed to acquire foreign bases

where U.S. ships could refuel and resupply.

• The U.S. expanded and modernized its navy

by building new steel-plated steam-powered

battleships.

• By 1900, the U.S. had the third largest navy in

the world.

• Today America has the most powerful navy in

the world.

Social Darwinism

o Imperialists thought they were

racially nationally, and culturally

superior.

o These Social Darwinists felt that

certain nations and races were

superior to others.

o And were destined to rule over

inferior peoples and cultures.

Social Darwinism:

• Americans embraced this idea.

• Some Americans believed that

God had granted them the

right and responsibility to settle

the frontier.

• They spoke of America’s

“Manifest Destiny” to expand

all the way to the Pacific

Ocean.

Social Darwinism:

• Josiah Strong, was a American

missionary.

• He believed that it was the mission of

America, to spread Western values to

weaker or less civilized nations.

• To gain converts for Christianity.

GROUP ACTIVITY

o Does the Bible support Josiah Strong’s position? Give Bible verses to support your position.

o During this time of imperialism, Christians began to believe in Social Darwinism. Is Social Darwinism and Christianity compatible?

• Pro_14:31 He that oppresseth

the poor reproacheth his Maker:

but he that honoureth him hath

mercy on the poor.

• (Rom 13:10) Love worketh no ill

to his neighbour: therefore love

is the fulfilling of the law.

• When the Holy Spirit moves upon human minds, all petty complaints and accusations between man and his fellow man will be put away. The bright beams of the Sun of Righteousness will shine into the chambers of the mind and heart. In our worship of God there will be no distinction between rich and poor, white and black. All prejudice will be melted away. When we approach God, it will be as one brotherhood. {RH, October 24, 1899 par. 8}

Manifest Destiny: Historian Fredrick Jackson Turner

o The frontier had been closed by gradual

settlement in the nineteenth century.

o Turner believed the frontier helped ambitious

Americans to have a fresh start and pursue

their fortunes.

o It served as a “safety valve” to prevent people

from not feeling happy or content.

o This would lead to internal conflict.

o To prevent this some believed the need to

expand overseas.

America’s Steps to a World Power:

o In 1853, Commodore Matthew

Perry led a fleet of American

warships into Tokyo Bay, Japan.

o Giving lavish gifts to the Emperor

and showing off their powerful guns.

Impact of Perry’s Visit:

o Japan no longer used swords but

modernizes its military.

o Japan itself becomes a imperialist

nation.

o Japan would later used the

technology and training they

learned from the U.S. and other

European nations to attack the U.S.

in Pearl Harbor.

America’s Steps to a World Power:

• In 1867 the U.S. took possession of the Midway Islands.

• Treaties in 1875 and 1887 increased trade with the Hawaiian Islands.

• This gave the U.S. the right to build a naval base at Pearl Harbor.

America’s Steps to a World Power:

• In 1867, Secretary of State William

Seward bought Alaska from

Russia for $7.2 million.

International Pan-American

Conference of nations in the

U.S. Acquires Hawaii • Americans had also established

• In 1887 American planters

convinced King Kalakaua to

amend the Hawaiian constitution.

wealthy land owners who were

White.

U.S. Acquires Hawaii

• In the 1890s, American Sugar planters faced losing profits

• U.S. tariff law imposed duties on previously duty-free Hawaiian sugar.

• This made Hawaiian sugar more expensive than sugar produced in the U.S.

• The sugar-growers in Hawaii thought they would suffer decreasing sales and profits.

U.S. Acquires Hawaii

• In 1891, Queen Lilluokalani

succeeded her brother, after his

death.

• She was a nationalist.

• She abolished the Hawaiian

Constitution that gave political

power to the White minority.

U.S. Acquires Hawaii

• In 1893, Planters such as Sanford B. Dole with the backing of U.S. Officials help overthrow the queen.

• John Stevens, U.S. minister to Hawaii, ordered the U.S. Marines to help the rebels seize power.

• The new government, led by wealthy planter Sanford B. Dole asked President Benjamin Harrison to annex Hawaii into the U.S.

annexation.

o But could not get the required senate approval before Grover Cleveland became president.

o Cleveland ordered a full investigation which revealed that the majority of the Hawaiian people did not approve the treaty.

o Cleveland refused to sign the agreement.

o By the Spanish American War, congress declared Hawaii a U.S. territory.

The American Sentinel: 1898

• “But now, the United States Government itself is departing from the principles for which it has hitherto stood. When it arose as a power among the nations, it protested against despotism in the name of the inalienable right of all men to civil and religious freedom. Its policy was that of "government of the people, by the people, and for the people." But a new policy is coming to the front; territory is now held under the authority of the United States in which the majority of the people have no voice in the Government. This is the case in Hawaii, which is now under military rule, than which a more despotic form of government does not exist.” A.T. Jones

True Expansion • The symbols of earthly governments are

wild beasts, but in the kingdom of Christ, men are called upon to behold, not a ferocious beast, but the Lamb of God.

He came as the divine Restorer, bringing to oppressed and down-trodden humanity the rich and abundant grace of Heaven, that by the power of his righteousness, man, fallen and degraded though he was, might be a partaker of divinity. {SW, December 24, 1907 par. 3}
