uhh hello? the USA!!!
lol

the United States was the biggest imperialistic country in all of world history. that might be an exaggeration but it's close.

The USA imperialized Latin America and China for economic policies in the early to mid 1900s.

And if you think about it, the USA is still currently very imperialistic. (Our involvement in Iraq for example).

Go to google.com and search "US imperialism," and you will get great answers.

Another imperialistic country was Great Britain (when it had colonized half the world). Actually, Britain was probably the most imperialistic country of all time (however, it's not imperialistic anymore).

Lastly, you might also consider Japan (imperialistic on half of Asia).

Excellent information in websites below open, read, decide then write.

I don't think most people know how close we came to having much of the world controlled either by the Soviet Union or the Third Reich.

....Read one mans opinion open link above

Come on now. You're using examples of countries that went to all out warfare against the rest of the world prior to their implosion
such as Germany and Japan. That's hardly and example of natural societal evolution.

Imperial Dollar
http://www.hermes-press.com/dollar_imperialism.htm
An imperialistic regime extends its power and dominion over other nations through military, economic, and cultural means. This involves the military acquisition of territory, gaining control over the political and economic life of subject groups, and imposing its money system on conquered nations.
The Assyrian, Egyptian, Chinese, Roman, and British Empires all established a single currency standard for the regions over which they ruled. The British forced their colonies and most other nations of the world to use the British pound sterling as the international monetary standard during its world rule in the eighteenth, nineteenth and early twentieth century.
.........The Rule of the Yankee Dollar...........
When America emerged from the second world war as the most powerful nation in the world, both economically and militarily, the demonic cabal that had seized political, economic, and social control of the United States in the first decades of the twentieth century was able to impose the American dollar on the world as the standard currency. In 1944, even before the war was over, the Western nations met at Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, to agree on the American dollar as the world currency. Bretton Woods established a dollar standard to replace the gold standard. The value of the dollar was fixed to gold at $35 to the ounce, and the world’s currencies were fixed to the dollar.
Following World War II, the international cabal wanted to make sure its dollar would be the international currency standard, so it created, among other processes, the Marshall Plan, named after Truman's secretary of state, George Marshall. The plan loaned American dollars to all the nations of Europe to "assist in the return of normal economic health in the world."

In a word: power. Imperialism is the process by which one country dominates another directly, by political means, or indirectly, by economic means.
