The Spanish-American War. by David Trask. Between 1895 and 1898 Cuba and the Philippine Islands revolted against Spain. The Cubans gained independence, but the Filipinos did not. In both instances the intervention of the United States was the culminating event.
As unrest in Cuba escalated in the 1890s the United States demanded reforms that Spain was unable to accomplish. The result was the short successful SpanishâAmerican War of 1898, in which United States acquired Puerto Rico, and set up a protectorate over Cuba.nited States signed up the major countries as allies against Germany and Japan in World War II. Argentina, however, refused to cooperate; the diplomatic tensions died down after the war. The turn of Castro's revolution in Cuba after 1959 toward Soviet communism alienated the United States.
