Explanation:
Imperialism is a policy or ideology of extending a country's rule over foreign nations, often by military force or by gaining political and economic control of other areas.[2] Imperialism has been common throughout recorded history, the earliest examples dating from the mid-third millennium BC. In recent times (since at least the 1870s), it has often been considered[by whom?] morally reprehensible and prohibited by international law.[citation needed] As a result, propagandists operating internationally may use the term to denounce an opponent's foreign policy.[3]
The term can be applied[by whom?] - inter alia - to the colonization of the Americas between the 16th and 19th centuries - as opposed to New Imperialism (the expansion of Western Powers and Japan during the late-19th and early-20th centuries). Well-known examples of imperialism arguably include the American invasion of Vietnam (1950s to 1970s) and Britain's occupation of India (17th to 20th centuries).
