Question

Which of the following was a reason for the isolation of the United States in the 1930s? A. The United States was occupied with domestic concerns during the Great Depression. B. The United States benefited from increased trade. C. The United States was becoming a communist nation. D. The United States had been paid by Nazi Germany to stay neutral.

Answer 1

A. The United States was occupied with domestic concerns during the Great Depression.

Many other countries were going through their own depressions, especially Germany with it's hyperinflation, so increased trade wasn't a thing. Nazi Germany wasn't fully in power yet, and communism, although not seen as a Cold War threat yet, was not tempting to the US.
