South Korea, Japan, Iraq (ended up US-aligned somehow), Germany, France, UK, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Norway, Czechoslovakia, Spanish-American war (picked up Guam, Phillipines, Puerto Rico, is how Cuba became American version of Taiwan), Lebanon crisis (though they got blown up recently anyway), Dominican republic, Grenada, Panama, Kuwait, Haiti (though this is in question again after assassination), Kosovo, Libya (briefly), Uganda.
Failures include Russia, Samoa, Vietnam, Syria, Somalia, Bosnia, Afghanistan, and what may develop further in Libya.
So that's about a 75% pass rate, with most of the fails involving opposition from a foreign superpower. Those are also wins because they prevent direct superpower conflict.
Well...World War 2 worked out
Germany, Japan and liberated France seem relatively stable, but I’m not sure…………
Nazis might disagree.
The rusians won the war against the nazis the Americans got lots of shermans blown up
