Among Theodore Roosevelt’s many achievements, he is perhaps best known for expanding the powers of the presidency, the federal government, and American foreign policy. He is also known for “trust-busting” (that is, breaking up monopolies), mediating an end to the Russo-Japanese War, and initiating the construction of the Panama Canal.
