In the 1890?s, the United States of America was at a crucial juncture in terms of its growth as a country. With The Civil War coming to a close and the West being settled, the conflicts that plagued and hindered the progress of the nation from its birth came to a harmonious resolution. With a drastic rise in its population and a booming economy, which was supported by a surplus of industrial production, America was on its road to becoming one of the great nations of the world. The question at that point of time was not what is wrong with the country, but what more can you do for the country? Although America was at such an advanced and civilized position, there were many parts of the world that were not even close to being at the same place.
