Franklin Roosevelt was the only one who expired three presidential periods in American history. It is often said that President Franklin Roosevelt is the greatest president of all time as the leader of the United States during the Great Depression, World War II and the most difficult times in world history.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt until becoming president
Franklin Roosevelt's house is said to have come from a long time ago when Jewish Dutch immigrated to New York, USA, with their surname Roosevelt. After the death of its founder, Klaas van Roosevelt, it split into two large houses, one producing Theodore Roosevelt and the other Franklin Roosevelt.
Franklin's mother is a Protestant (Huguenot) who fled the crackdown from France and was a very wealthy man. Therefore, Roosevelt's education was done by a tutor, not a school, and he never attended school until he went to a boarding school at the age of 14. He then went from Harvard University to Columbia Law School and then worked as a lawyer.
During this time, he married Eleanor Roosevelt, the son of Theodore Roosevelt's younger brother, and he became Theodore's nephew in law.
Franklin has had a close relationship with Theodore so far, but unlike Theodore, his supportive party is the Democratic Party, and in 1910 Franklin became a member of the Democratic Party's state legislature since 1884.
After that, he was appointed as Under Secretary of the Navy by Woodrow Wilson of the same Democratic Party, and at this time he became friends with Winston Churchill of England and others.
After the war, he ran for the Vice Presidential election, but lost a lot and returned to a lawyer. In 1928, he ran for the Governor of New York and was elected brilliantly.
He then ran for president in 1932, defeating incumbent Harvart Hoover and being elected the 32nd president of the United States.
The 32nd President of the United States (1st term 1933 to 1937)
When Franklin became president, the world was in a vortex of great turmoil. The Great Depression of 1929 showed no signs of improvement, and the city was flooded with unemployed people.
In response, Roosevelt adopted a policy of intentionally reducing unemployment by starting public works projects, establishing the Tennessee River Development Organization, and working on the "New Deal Policy," which is a policy to rebound the economy.
These policies range from the Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA), the National Labor Relations Act (NIRA), the Wagner Act, and the Social Security Act, but the content is still controversial and difficult to evaluate.
Some believe that the New Deal has helped the economy recover, while others say that the actual number of unemployed has not changed and that the economy has not recovered. More than that, the New Deal is a state's excessive participation in the economy and violates the principles of a liberal economy, and even the voice that Roosevelt is a socialist has existed from that time to the present. be.
The New Deal also included a suspension of the gold standard, which led to a backlash from many European countries, including France. The Great Depression from the United States made it impossible for Germany to pay compensation, which made it difficult for European countries to return their debts to the United States. France and others therefore called on the United States to resolve its debt repayment obligations, but Roosevelt dismissed it and stated that it would prioritize the economic recovery of the United States over the recovery of the world economy.
This broke the London World Transit Economic Conference and the world rushed towards a second match.
Furthermore, during this period, Stalin's Soviet Union was approved, and while fascism was rampant in Germany and Italy, the United States resolved a neutral law stating that it would maintain isolationism since Monroe, effectively allowing the increase in fascism.
Furthermore, it will change its imperialist response to Cuba, abolish the Platt Amendment, adopt a policy that allows the independence of the Philippines, and adopt a harmonious policy called "Good Neighbor Diplomacy" for the Caribbean Sea.
Second and third presidential terms (1937 to 1945)
In 1939, Nazi Germany had finally begun an invasion of neighboring Poland. Britain and France, which had been implementing a reconciliation policy with Germany until now, decided to war with Germany after seeing this, and finally World War II, the worst war in human history, began.
The United States initially did not participate according to the principles of Monroe Doctrine.
The change was the attack on Pearl Harbor in Hawaii by the Imperial Japanese Army.
The reason why Japan carried out such an unreasonable operation is still controversial in every scene, and the United States is good at attacking the other country like the Maine case, the Lucitania case, and the later Gulf of Tonkin case. Therefore, I think it is reasonable to assume that the Imperial Japanese Army was fitted with Mamma by the American strategy.
Franklin Roosevelt had no choice but to participate in World War II. The reason was economic problems such as the unemployment problem.
The following is the unemployment rate in the United States, but it can be seen that it has dropped at a stretch in the wake of World War II.
However, there was no reason for the United States to declare war on Germany. Germany is not hostile to the United States, and this time it is not doing unlimited bombing like World War I. So Roosevelt turned his attention to the Tripartite Pact of Japan, Germany and Italy. Japan and the United States have been in conflict over China since their uncle, Theodore Roosevelt, and the idea is that if they are violently stimulated, they will attack.
Roosevelt's prospectus was excellent. The nation of Japan is not good at seeing things and formulating strategies at the world level from the past to the present.
The result was clear before the Japanese army was defeated. It was foolish for the Empire of Japan to turn the United States into an enemy, but it was also foolish for Nazi Germany to attack the Soviet Union. As a result, the battle in Europe, which was called the Battle of Britain, spread to the whole world, and the Axis powers literally had to fight against the world.
The United States and the Soviet Union formed an alliance with the United Kingdom led by Churchill, and in Europe, the Normandy landings were carried out, Germany surrendered, and then Japan dropped two nuclear bombs to show the strength of the United States to the world. I showed it off.
Roosevelt had died before that, and it was Truman who dropped the bomb directly, but it was Franklin Roosevelt who made such a plan.
As a result, the American economy recovered rapidly and grew.
The following is the GDP of the United States.
In reality, the New Deal policy is totally ineffective, and it can be seen that the war has increased the national power of the United States.
Personal evaluation of Franklin Roosevelt
Franklin Roosevelt is the most prosperous president of the United States.
In fact, before Roosevelt, America enjoyed unprecedented prosperity, but at the same time its collapse had begun. It can be said that Roosevelt not only stopped the collapse, but also made the United States the number one country in the world and opened the beginning of world domination by the United States.
I used World War II for that.
World War II was a great success for America.
It was the worst war for Japan, but the worst war for the United States was the Civil War, not World War II.
The death toll in the United States in World War II was 400,000, in the Civil War 500,000, and in terms of proportion, the number of mobilization in World War II was 16 million, the Civil War was 3.3 million, and for the United States, "postwar" means north and south. Refers to after the war.
The United States had already exposed its desire to rule the world since World War II. What was needed for that was overwhelming force. The new atomic bomb was a symbol of this, and Hiroshima and Nagasaki were good shows for the US military.
Franklin Roosevelt was also famous as a racist.
Everyone in the world knows that Hitler ran a racial quarantine camp, but to what extent it is known that Roosevelt ran a forced quarantine facility to house Japanese Americans. Is it there?
Yellow races like the Japanese are an extinct target for American presidents and rulers.
