you forgot about the Pirates of Tripoli-----BARBARY WAR----1801. How old were you in 1801?
that wasn't a big problem. We sent over some ships, they didn't bother us again for 170 years... because it wasn't our problem.
But we foolishly picked up being the new colonial masters after the Europeans got out, and now we are wondering why we are having problems.
Kind of like- wait for it - sticking your dick in a hornet's nest and complaining about getting stung.
