Roosevelt's policy toward the 1933 London Economic Conference showed his concern for establishing a stable international economic order.

Roosevelt adhered to his Good Neighbor principle of nonintervention in Latin America, even when Mexico seized American oil companies in 1938.

American isolationism was caused partly by deep disillusionment with U.S. participation in World War I.

The Neutrality Acts of the mid-1930s prevented Americans from lending money or selling weapons to warring nations and from sailing on belligerent ships.

Despite the neutrality laws, the United States government provided assistance and sent unofficial military units to defend the democratic Spanish Loyalist government in itsCivil War with rebel fascist General Francisco Franco.

America's isolationist mood began to swing toward interventionism in response to Roosevelt's Quarantine speech and Japan's attack on the U.S. gunboat Panay in 1937.

The United States attempted to dissuade the Western democracies from pursuing their policy of appeasing Hitler's aggressive demands at the Munich Conference andafter.

The cash-and-carry Neutrality Act of 1939 allowed America to aid the Allies without making loans or transporting weapons on U.S. ships.

The fall of France to Hitler in 1940 strengthened U.S. determination to stay neutral.

Isolationists argued that economic and military aid to Britain would inevitably lead to U.S. involvement in the European war.

Republican presidential nominee Willkie joined the isolationist attack on Roosevelt's pro-Britain policy in the 1940 campaign.

The 1941 Lend-Lease Act marked the effective abandonment of U.S. neutrality and the beginning of naval clashes with Germany.

The Atlantic Charter was an agreement on future war aims signed by Great Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union.

U.S. warships were already being damaged and sunk in clashes with the German navy before Pearl Harbor.

The Japanese navy established its domination of the Pacific sea-lanes in the 1942 battles of Coral Sea and Midway.

While their Soviet ally was still reeling from Hitler's invasion in the first years of the war, Britain and the United States bore the heaviest burden of Allied ground fightingand casualties.

Liberal Democrats rallied to dump Vice President Henry Wallace from FDR's ticket in 1944 and replace him with Senator Harry S Truman.

The American consumer economy began to grow dramatically as soon as the World War II ended, during the years 1945 to 1950.

The postwar economic boom was fueled by military spending and cheap energy.

The enormous American population migrations of the immediate postwar era strengthened the traditional family and inter-generational forms of child-rearing.

The economic and population growth of the Sunbelt occurred because the South relied less than the North did on federal government spending for its economic well-being.

In the decades after World War II most big American cities became heavily populated with minorities, while the new suburbs were almost entirely white.

Government policies played a role in creating a high degree of residential segregation in the cities and new suburbs.

The inexperienced new president Harry S Truman brought relied heavily on his advisors and often dodged responsibility for difficult decisions.

The new United Nations proved more effective than the old League of Nations because its effective power was concentrated in the Security Council made up of the greatpowers.

The Truman Doctrine was initiated in response to threatened Soviet gains in Iran and Afghanistan.

The Marshall Plan was developed primarily as a response to the possible Soviet military invasion of Western Europe.

The fundamental purpose of NATO was to end the historical feuds among the European nations of Britain, France, Italy, and Germany.

The postwar hunt for communist subversion was supposedly aimed at rooting out American communists from positions in government and teaching.

Truman defeated Dewey in 1948 partly because of the deep splits within the Republican party that year.
