Answer 1

The United States' emergence as a world power was primarily due to D. The Spanish-American War. This conflict in 1898 marked a significant turning point, as it resulted in the U.S. gaining territories like Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, establishing itself as a global imperial power. While both World Wars II and I further solidified the U.S. position on the world stage, the initial emergence can be traced back to the outcome of the Spanish-American War.
