How and why did the United States take a more active role in world affairs?

The United States took a significantly more active role in world affairs by the early 20th Century. The earliest step the U.S. took to becoming a world power was to build a large navy. The annexation of Hawaii was an important next step in the U.S. becoming a world power; also, this increased its naval presence in the Pacific. Moreover, the United States began to influence almost every country in Latin America especially after the building of the Panama Canal which connected its Atlantic and Pacific fleets. Clearly, by the early 20th Century the United States had set its sights on being the next greatest naval power following many other countries of the 19th Century. Is naval power still the key step in being a world power in the 21st Century? After nearly a hundred years of naval supremacy the U.S. is still far and away from any other country.
