  4. Roosevelt's “Big Stick” Diplomacy

  5. 1904 Russia and Japan at war • Japan approaches TR and asks him to end the war • Meetings took place at Portsmouth, N.H. • Portsmouth Treaty won TR the Nobel Peace Prize

  6. Panama Canal • TR and others thought we needed a Canal connecting Atlantic and Pacific

  7. Panama Canal • 1 problem: Columbia controlled Panama and did not want to give up land to US • TR and Bunau-Varilla “arranged” a revolution against Columbia • US warships pointed their guns at Columbia as a threat if they stopped the Panamanians from their revolution • US would pay 10 million up front and 250,000 a year to Panama for use of Canal

  8. Panama Canal • Still had to be built • Disease, soft soil, hard to get good workers • 43,400 employed at one time! • August 1914 open for business • Good for US business, but bad feelings between Latin American countries and US. Would they be next?

  9. Roosevelt Corollary • TR worried that Latin American countries might be taken over by European countries, especially those with bad economies • 1820’s Monroe Doctrine had told Europe to stay out of our hemisphere • 1904 TR reminds Europe to stay out with the Roosevelt Corollary: Just a reminder that US will protect Latin America and use force to bring peace. “Speak softly and carry a big stick”

  10. Dollar Diplomacy • Taft did not like TR’s threatening approach and tried a different one • He lent money to countries in trouble to get them back on their feet by getting new businesses in their countries. • He felt they would like us better if we helped them grow, rather then threaten their enemies • Sometimes he used troops, but tried not too

  11. Woodrow Wilson • Wilson replaced Taft and had new ideas • He felt that the US would only help countries that had good moral governments: Treated their people well • Wanted more countries to get a Democratic government and we would help them • Mexico put him to the test

  12. Wilson’s “Missionary” Diplomacy

  13. Mexico • Mexico had a dictator for many years: Diaz • Friendly to US, but not to his own people • 1911 poor in Mexico led by Madero revolted and won, but only lasted a couple of years • 1913 new president: Huerta. Wilson did not like him, so he did not recognize him as the leader

  14. US intervenes in Mexico • Wilson waited for a moment he could challenge Huerta • Tampico: 1914 US sailors arrested but let go quickly • Wilson sends Marines to Mexico • We almost went to war • ABC powers stopped war, got rid of Huerta • New president: Carranza, Wilson OK with this, but not the Mexican people

  15. Rebellion in Mexico • Pancho Villa and Zapata not agree with Carranza and wanted him out • Villa had been a friend of US before • Villa attacked US miners on way to Mexico, and invaded New Mexico killing US citizens • Wilson had to send US army under Pershing to chase • Carranza not like US troops in Mexico so his army and US clash • Just about to go to war and WWI breaks out
