Introduction
The United State of America is the world superpower. It is the country with the biggest muscle in the military strength. It is also among the eight richest countries in the world commonly known as (G-8). Its president has considered the president of the world and the presidency is very powerful. As powerful as it is, the decision made from the biggest office in that land, White House is not even opposed by the United Nations. Simply America is final in making decision in the world. A good example is the decision to invade Iraq, the United Nation's leadership was against, but America went ahead to invade Iraq. Since the end of the World War II, America acquired the supremacy of the world and because it was not affected by the war

left as the only market for the countries hit by the war. To date, America is still strong. U.S economic policies and foreign trade is still on the move but is taking another route for the last two centuries the country has been existing. (Krist, 2013) At past government policies concentrated mostly on developing domestic trade despite the happening in other nations of the continent. According to the report, the 1930's Great Depression and the World War II, America decided to reduce trade barriers and embrace the world economic system. The following are the U.S policies A Fraying Consensus on Trade This is the first policy concerning trade in America. Policymakers in U.S forged this document to expand the world trade immediately after the world war. After that, the General Agreement on Tariff and Trade (GATT) came into being. GATT came into being to take part in the stimulating environment through lowering tariff which will lead to an expansion of the trade worldwide a decision which will ensure that millions of young people who currently indulged in a high level of poverty. Shortly after the creation of GATT, cold war erupted within the geostrategic covered made it take shape trade wise. The then U.S President John F Kennedy was the man in charge to push for this policy which on return led to the expansion of business globally. International organic trade Currently, America is in agreement with several other nations of the world aimed at facilitating the exchange of natural products. (Erzan, 2010) The arrangement ought to create more markets for USDA organic producers. The programs which deal with the national organic currently works with foreign agricultural bodies of the United State Trade Representatives to launch global trade agreements. Trade policy U.S is currently in negotiation to liberate trade with other foreign countries especially developed ones so as to boost food and agricultural sector hence grow economically.
Due to ready and available markets, American producers will be in an excellent position to grow and expand their business.
Trade agreements
USDA provides access to policy agreement with other countries of the world concerning the business. The agreements govern the trade between America with the foreign countries of the world. Being a superpower, America controls many sectors of the economy in the world. Many of those agreements, America consult her partners G-8 so as to avoid making a decision which can be dangerous to the environment.

The news about business is very necessary mostly to countries like African continent. The statistics concerning trade is aimed at providing relevant information which will boost trade internationally.
Factors of production
The three factors of production are;
Natural Resources
Labor
Capital Natural Resources The natural resource is purely land. It is the primary factor in output. Every other crops and activity are carried out on this resource. When one uses something grown from the ground to come up with something good, the person is said to have used the land. Mango juices produced from mango trees is growing from the ground. (Herrmann, 2012)The land is the major factor in production because it contains recourses which are limited. Therefore they should be used well to cover everybody. The property also includes many nonrenewable resources which mean they are fixed. The mobility of these natural recourses is bad for America due to high population fighting for limited resources. Labor It is simply human intervention to production. Human labor is the key to converting a mango into mango juice. Labor is the most important factor of production which represent people. People transform resources into finished goods and services. This factor is good for America it contains large skilled population which is needed in converting natural resources into finished goods. Capital Capital is another factor of production. Money and equipment used in production represent capital. After the production, money is required to sell those products and advertise for those products. Capital is used to purchase other resources. (Larson, 2014)Most importantly, money runs the business. The mobility is good to America because it has enough capital to do business. Absolute advantage com This is the ability of United States to produce a property and services at a lower cost per unit as pared to the cost at which any other country provides that same goods and services Comparative advantage It is the ability of United States to conduct a particular economic activity much efficiently as compared to another activity
Trade, of course, is only part of a larger network of relationships between our two countries. This network evolves in response to many complex influences, and exporters need to consider how our two countries' ever-expanding, ever-changing relationships will affect their activities. To take just a few examples:
The United States is the Super Power in today’s world and two reasons for that are the outcome of World War II and how the President at the time, Franklin Delano Roosevelt handled conflicts at home as well as overseas. America was going through a very difficult time dealing with the Great Depression and the problem of Germany starting conflicts in Europe where nothing was being done about it. World War II was something America stayed out of for about three years, but when we finally did get involved the “scales” were now tipped in the favor of the Allies due to the American involvement. Also, as shown in World War I when the United States gets involved with conflicts dealing with issues overseas we are very successful and are adamant on becoming victorious. Much like the conflict America is dealing with today in Iraq, although many people do not agree with the war and the grounds for the war I think that our government is doing the right thing. People need to realize that our government would not do anything to hurt the nation or its people because that is just a reflection of the government and the people who run it. They want to be perceived as the super power of the world and would not do anything to hurt that image. Much like Roosevelt helped the United States to appear the Super Power, President Bush is also doing his part by continuing the war on terror and not ending it until he feels we have conquered the men behind the 9/11 attacks.

future shaped by wars. The side who win the battle shape the sole future of their opponent. This can also be related with the quote of Winston Churchill “History is written by the victors”. While indicating the League of Nations I claimed that absence of United States of America created emptiness over authority. This does not mean that United States creates the sole authority by itself still, without United States there isn’t a neutral country with a powerful military force left in League. The League cannot establish checks and balances system in itself that’s why decisions upon pre World War II period leaned to the victors of World War I. United Nations establish its check system on the countries by the support of super powers. We can see its example of Korean War in United Nations Security Council Resolution 84. Security Council with the resolution 84 recommended the member countries of the United Nations provide such assistance to the Republic of Korea as may be compulsory to repel the attack and re-establish peace and security. Security Council with that decision establish the United Nations Command under the leadership of United States of America to stop the North Korea’s advancement and drive back them to north of 38th Parallel. This was the first time an army established among the decision of United Nations. But, this event leads us on this question will United Nations able to stop a conflict if the conflict started or conducted by a super power like United States or Russian Federation. The answer can be found in recent events. With the annexation of Crimea by Russian Federation, Vetoes of People’s Republic of China and Russian Federations on the Security Council’s resolution on condemning Syrian government and taking immediate action towards the Syrian Civil War or France’s role on preventing United Nation’s help to prevent genocide on Rwanda. These examples show us that United Nations cannot act beyond
Have you ever wondered how the United States became one of the most recognized country today? In the past, foreign nations viewed America as a country with no influence or importance. However, from the 1867 to 1919, America began to build its reputation as a global power. Although United States had little recognition with other countries as a global power, it began to develop a reputation as one after the historical events in Hawaii, Panama Canal, and also the Phillippines.

Our largest opportunity for growth lies in the emerging economies of China, India, and Thailand. A modest growth in stores in the US, and Europe (2%), while increasing efforts to expand by 10% a year in China, Thailand, and India while offering new menu items in the stores we currently have in place is projected to increase our revenues from $14.9 billion per year to $26.46 billion per year over the next 4 years. This plan will increase our indirect labor force, by adding select marketing teams, commodity managers, and a VP of construction.
As consumers, we often wonder where our food products come from. Many products in fact, are produced by the agro-commodity food giant, Cargill, which is recognized around the world for its products and services. Cargill, the largest privately owned transnational corporation in The United States is known for dominating different divisions of the agribusiness field while seamlessly globalizing into new sectors of business such as trade for their own growth and development on a fast-tracked basis. While there are social and economic costs for countries and citizens due to Cargill’s efforts, the corporation overall has a positive impact on the lives of inhabitants around the globe as it continues to nourish the world.

Every person on this earth has a superpower. It doesn 't matter your age, ethnicity, gender, or financial status. Superpowers can also be invisible to the naked eye, but we all have them. My superpower is not one of physical strength, I dont have x-ray vision, and I dont have the ability to leap from tall buildings. My superpower is Empathy.
Many Americans are used to getting the products they desire, at any cost. Trade with other countries is a necessity to the US because of the needs of the American people. Some examples of consumption could be wine, diamonds and gems, and vehicles. Another driving force in the global economy is cost of labor. Imagine the amount of money some companies would have to pay American workers to do the same work as some third world countries. Offshoring has become a big factor in the global economy. Many companies have opened customer service centers in different countries due to the savings. Clothing companies moved their manufacturing plants to other countries due to the cost of labor. Major stores in the US, for example, Wal-Mart, brings in most of their product from other countries to save money and pass that savings onto the consumer. Capitalism in the US has recently helped the global economy, the benefits of the Americans in the world’s marketplace is seen the return of money to the rest of the
Whenever world politics is mentioned, the state that appears to be at the apex of affairs is the United States of America, although some will argue that it isn’t. It is paramount we know that the international system is shaped by certain defining events that has lead to some significant changes, particularly those connected with different chapters of violence. Certainly, the world wars of the twentieth century and the more recent war on terror must be included as defining moments. The warning of brute force on a potentially large scale also highlights the vigorousness of the cold war period, which dominated world politics within an interval of four decades. The practice of international relations (IR) was introduced out of a need to discuss the causes of war and the different conditions for calm in the wake of the first world war, and it is relevant we know that this has remained a crucial focus ever since. However, violence is not the only factor capable of causing interruption in the international system. Economic elements also have a remarkable impact. The great depression that happened in the 1920s, and the global financial crises of the contemporary period can be used as examples. Another concurrent problem concerns the environment, with the human climate being one among different number of important concerns for the continuing future of humankind and the planet in general.
Security Council. United States dominance has only brought bloodshed and chaos in many parts of the world. He criticized United States by saying, ‘We all know that after the end of the Cold War — everyone is aware of that — a single center of domination emerged in the world, and then those who found themselves at the top of the pyramid were tempted to think that if they were strong and exceptional, they knew better and they did not have to reckon with the U.N.’ He also stated that United States failed to learn lessons from the Soviet Union which collapsed because of exporting its ideological preferences to other countries. In the same way United States, pushes it theory of democracy in the form of revolution to many countries in the Middle East and North Africa mentioning about Iraq and Libya. The American initiated democracy in those regions only brought destruction and chaos in the country. It was an utter failure. Only violence, poverty and social disaster prevail in those regions. He squarely asked the listeners ‘who have caused the situation? Do you realize now what you've done? But I am afraid no one is going to answer
