Imperialism is a word derived from the Latin word "imperium", meaning to rule over. While there is no accepted definition of imperialism, you may consider it as an advocacy for building an empire.
Hence, imperialism is advocating dominance and attempts to centralize power (economic, political, cultural) over a large and diverse groups of land and people. Empires, usually do not have a prior or present legal sovereignty over the lands and people it wishes to rule over, hence to build an empire, integration is often forceful.
Empires can be built by acquiring colonies (eg. The British, The French, Spanish, Portugal etc) and/or enforcing allegiance from the local subjects(The Persians, The Mauryans, The Mughals, Feudal Europe, Feudal Japan etc). Since the definitions for empires and imperialism is so vague, they have been applied to describe almost any country that tries to dominate in politics or is trying to create a hegemony. Today a popular notion of US Imperialism and the American Empire has taken root in the grand scheme of things
