1 jan 1898 ano - The Spanish-American War

Descrição:

Militarily speaking, the Spanish-American War of 1898 was so brief and relatively bloodless as to have been a mere passing episode in the history of modern warfare. Its political and diplomatic consequences, however, were enormous: it catapulted the United States into the arena of world politics and set it, at least briefly, on the new road of imperialism. To be sure, specific events drove the United States to hostilities in 1898, but the stage had already been set by profound changes in thought about the nation’s mission and its destiny.
