12 avr. 1900 - Foraker Act
Description:
The U.S. passed a federal law to give Puerto Rico full sovereignty over themselves, establishing it as a protectorate rather than a site of imperialistic American rule. They were given such freedoms as the right to establish their own government and sit on the U.S. Congress. The Foraker Act serves as a model for respectful and equal treatment of colonies.Ajouté au bande de temps:
