Explanation:

In the late 19th - century US territorial expansion, the need for raw materials (to fuel industrial growth) and the desire for military power (to project influence globally) were major reasons. The idea of expanding to “bring other cultures to America and increase its diversity” was not a major driving force; expansion was more about economic and strategic goals like access to resources, new markets, and military dominance, not cultural diversity - focused.

Answer:

The desire to bring other cultures to America and increase its diversity
