Answer to peer VillalobosDo you think there are shared benefits in such alliances? Considering the history between Great Britain and the U.S, “U.S. President Barack Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron ceremonially reaffirmed the American-British “special relationship” at meetings in Washington in March 2012.the 2 nations.” “U.S. President Ronald Reagan and British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher represented the “special relationship.” Both admired the others’ political savvy and public appeal.” I think they had “special relationships,” I believe they all had their perks that would benefit each of the nations.How might the alliance between U.S. and Great Britain and France impact the future? The 2 parties have an agreement from the past until forever to remain in standing and against all other powers. The United States will work with the United Kingdom to build back better together from the impact of the global pandemic including through cooperation to prevent, detect, and rapidly respond to future infectious disease threats, secure our global supply chains, and restart travel and tourism as soon as it is safe to do so.Does it impact U.S. politics and society? Why or why not?I do believe it impacts US politics and society, the United States has no closer Ally than the United Kingdom. Making them that much stronger, joint as a force.

Lenora WI think there are no shared benefits in the alliances between great Britain and the U.S. The United States and Great Britain concluded no formal military alliance during the 19th century. There were several disagreements, some severe enough on occasion for both sides to contemplate war prior to what historians have called The Great Rapprochement between the two beginning in the 1890s. Even before that, there was also complementarity in their actions that accorded with the principle of eternal interests rather than eternal allies. For example, the Monroe Doctrine, set forth by President James Monroe in 1823 to prevent European nations from colonizing territory or threatening states in North or South America, might have been largely impossible to implement given the Royal Navys ability to intervene when and where it chose. Britain, however, elected not to challenge the Monroes policy because it accorded with Britains interest in ensuring that the disintegrating Spanish empire in the Americas did not fall piece by piece into the hands of its imperial rivals. America has chosen to engage in or refuse alliance depending on its interests. The alliance between U.S. and Great Britain and France impact the future by the French and Indian War began in 1754 and ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The war provided Great Britain enormous territorial gains in North America, but disputes over subsequent frontier policy and paying the war’s expenses led to colonial discontent, and ultimately to the American Revolution.
