An arsenal is a warehouse for weapons.In a paragraph, describe what you think Roosevelt meant when he described the United States as the “arsenal of democracy.”
When President Roosevelt described the United States as the “arsenal of democracy,” he meant that the country would serve as the primary supplier of weapons and military equipment to democratic nations, such as Great Britain, who were fighting against the Axis powers. Even though the United States had not yet officially entered World War II, Roosevelt believed that using America's industrial strength to produce massive quantities of supplies was essential to protecting democratic values worldwide. By acting as a warehouse and factory for the tools of war, the U.S. could help defeat totalitarianism without immediately sending troops into combat.
