Abstract
The thesis entitled "U.S. vs. The World: America's Color Coded War Plans and the Evolution of Rainbow Five" explains the history and necessity of the United States military's color designated war plans in light of such traditional U.S. foreign policies such as the Monroe Doctrine, and also historical cultural movements such as Manifest Destiny, as well as the evolution of the single colored war plans into the multi-colored Rainbow Plans, and ultimately their final version, Rainbow Five, the United States strategic plan for victory during World War II.
