You know what, I deserve this conversation. I’ve trolled people with “It can’t be imperialism because we’re a republic” before, this is just karma.
On the off chance that you’re not just trolling, no, it isn’t, because your definition sucks and is deliberately limited so you can be a pedantic yet incorrect twat about some of history’s greatest crimes.
The United Fruit Company literally building a private army and overthrowing the government of Honduras isn’t imperialism?
I think if you asked them it would just be considered good business /S
Over a hunderd years ago… but I get the point. Also not the OP you were replying to before.

So exactly what was described?
Let me get this right.
You don’t think the British East Indian Company’s conquest of India was imperialism either?
Because it wasn’t technically the state doing it.
