The New Nation: Foreign Policy Worksheet

As a new country, the U.S. struggled with stronger, more established nations. This assignment will help you learn more about the events between 1783 and 1823 that changed the role of the U.S. in the world.

First go to the following link to find the foreign policy worksheet:

There, you will find a chart of events involving the U.S. and foreign nations. You may google each event, or find it in your textbook, read about it, then fill in the chart. Keep in mind, you want to determine how the U.S. and the other nation(s) involved, treated each other.
How would you describe the relationship between that country and ours, at that particular time in history? It might be helpful to use the word respect when describing the relationship between nations.

In the end, you will want to be able to answer this question: "How did the role of the U.S. in the world change between 1783 and 1823?"
