My first project revolved around a historical base. I wanted to explore the question of: Was America an Empire? Through researching on other peoples opinions and the aspects of an empire, it led me to believe that in fact America was an Empire. This Topic fell interest to me due to the History classes that I took throughout my high school career. In my classes I feel as though I explored the Ancient world and many Empires throughout History. This made me think, because America displayed many of these aspects could it be considered a modern day Empire? I started my project with some research, with this I had to branch out into my english and history project.
English
For the english portion of my project I decided to discuss American imperialism through the product of an essay.
History
For the Self in Modern Course, I decided to make a historical magazine that shows the expansion and military of the U.S.
