1900年，即联合远征义和团和菲美战争爆发的一年，美国海军学家阿尔弗雷德·塞耶·马汉（Alfred Thayer Mahan）开始着手研究《亚洲问题及其对国际政策的影响》（The Problem of Asia and Its Effect on International Policies），他评论说：“这将是一项有趣的研究。. .追溯美国人民对扩张的冲动的起源和演变，这种冲动最近迈出了决定性的一步。他警告说，这项研究“如果不能清楚地认识到这一点，那将是非常不完美的。. .这只是最近几十年来席卷整个欧洲文明世界的一种情绪的一个阶段。1美国帝国的其他建设者会同意。在沿着不同的时间线上，追求不同的议程，并动员不同的话语来捍卫它们，来自不同政治背景的美国人逐渐认识到，美国的新殖民帝国-其更广阔的商业，领土和军事帝国的一部分-在一个更大的帝国思想和实践网络中运作。鼓励帝国重叠的因素，与丹尼尔T。罗杰斯最重要的是，
