Spanish American War (25 abr 1898 ano – 12 ago 1898 ano)
Descrição:
The Spanish American War started when the U.S.S. Maine blew up. The United States blamed the Spanish (although after the war they discovered the explosion came from inside the ship). McKinley approved going to war, and by April, both the U.S. and Spain had declared war. The United States won the war after about 5 months of fighting. After the war, the U.S. liberated Cuba, and got Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines as colonies for itself.
