World War II

Dwight David Eisenhower was the Supreme Allied Commander in Europe during World War II and the 34th President of the United States, serving from 1953 to 1961.

The Monroe Doctrine is a cornerstone of America's Foreign Policy that warned against European influence in the Western Hemisphere and has been modified to justify American involvement in the region.

The New Deal was a series of programs and policies implemented in the 1930s by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in response to severe economic and social issues in the United States.

World War II saw the United States emerge as a global power, as its military and industrial capabilities pushed the Allied Powers to victory over the Axis Powers. Despite early challenges, the U.S. adapted quickly, producing the weapons, resources, and leaders that were essential to the successful war effort.

Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Shadow of War focuses on America’s path from Isolationism to its entrance into World War II. Despite Roosevelt’s efforts to avoid war, ongoing aggression from Hitler’s Germany, Mussolini’s Italy, and Imperial Japan increased U.S. support for its European allies. This contributed to the Attack on Pearl Harbor and the U.S. Declaration of War in 1941.

The Supreme Court was established by the United States Constitution and organized by the Judiciary Act of 1789. The Supreme Court is the highest court in the United States of America.
