U.S. leaders in the 1920s hoped to keep the rest of the world?

U.S. leaders in the 1920s hoped to keep the rest of the world at arm's length through a policy of isolationism, prioritizing domestic issues and avoiding entanglements in foreign conflicts. This approach was influenced by the aftermath of World War I and a desire to focus on economic growth and stability at home. However, they also sought to promote American interests abroad, particularly through diplomacy and trade, while maintaining a cautious distance from international alliances and commitments.
