Imperialism



This writing is going to explain how in order to maintain progress a state must embrace imperialism. Imperialism is when one nation attempt to dominate another politically or economically. In the 21stcentury we’ve already witnessed some of the consequences of imperialism, but history has shown that the advances made by imperialistic actions out way its drawbacks. I am going to broaden the scope of imperialism to mean any type of aggressive action of an idea country or organization so I can go more in depth.
  Europe has contained history’s most powerful nations. What all these countries shared in common was their value of imperialism. With ought the threat of a foreign takeover there would have been no motivation for progress. The rest of earths continents held the week and primitive nations that were abruptly ended by European colonialism.
  Sure there are many peaceful ideas in the world but what good are they if you are not willing to fight for them, so the whole idea of constant peace is flawed. If you know that one idea, government or culture is superior to another and you allow the inferior to continue to exist you invite the destruction of yours, by being peaceful you allow competition to rise up to challenge what is right.
Another idea involving peace that is flawed is peaceful protest. It’s hypocritical from the start, the whole idea of showing off numbers is to scare the opponents with the thought of what if these numbers were militant. So why even waste time with peaceful protest? If you have an idea and evidence for its validity it is your duty to spread it by any means necessary.
So as unhappy as imperialism sounds if the United States hadn’t forcefully removed Native Americans then there would be no one to rise up against Nazism or Communism. In these situations the end justified the means.
