may 2, 1927 - The Annexation of The Republic of Havana
Description:
In 1925 the united states got more involved in Latin american affairs leading to the conclusion that mexico will not do anything because of the reconstruction from the revolution. this meant that intervention in the protectorate of the Republic Of Havana will not make a crisis with Mexico. The more independent republic Of Havana was getting further away from the belief of interdependence with the southern part of Cuba and more with the economic isolationism policy. The U.S saw an opportunity and began to get involved in affairs of The Republic of Havana. In 1926 a new president was elected he drew in the idea that the republic was not a puppet of anyone, this began the hostilities between Americans living in Cuba and Cubans living in The U.S which increased chances of war. The real problem was hit when the U.S began to move its navy in The Capital Havana as a military base without the consent of the president or the government, this made the Cuban government to ask if the navy could leave since they did not formed an agreement, They refused and the cannons fired and destroyed the ship. The american government declared war which made The Republic Of Havana with the Havana agreement to get annexed back to mexico. When the treaty was accepted the American ships found its was now Mexican territory and thus could not violate the treaty of Havana which would last all the way until 1942. So they left to not come back
