Spanish American War History The Spanish colonised, annexed and plundered most of the West Indies and Central and South America shortly after Columbus discovered America, destroying the Aztec and Inca empires in the process. The Pope divided the globe in two giving the Portuguese the Eastern part and the Spanish the Western part on the condition they spread the Catholic faith. Portuguese influence stretched from Brazil to East Timor. Spanish influence stretched from the Philippines to Argentina. The Spanish founded many major cities (all ports) including Havana, Mexico City (built directly on top of the old Aztec Capital of Tenochitilan), Lima, Santiago, and Buenos Aires. Veracruz linking Mexico to Spain and Acapulco linking the Philippines to Mexico. England and French offered little opposition to Spain at this time as their populations were only 8 million against the 24 million of Spain. Now Britain and France are more populace than Spain largely due to the large number a Spaniards who emigrated to Latin America. England only become strong through piracy of Spanish Galleons. England being an Island couldn't be attacked by land so the Spanish sent an Amarda which was destroyed by a chance storm, which was lucky because the English army was very weak most resources being diverted to the navy. There afterwards Spanish power was greatly weakened and the English, Dutch (who revolted against Spanish rule), and French were able to establish colonies in the Americas. There were hopes that all the Spanish speaking countries could form a united government but ethnic and geographical differences prevented this, particularly with the limited transport network of this period which relied on the sea. After all some counties bordered the West Indies and others bordered the Pacific or Atlantic Ocean. Argentina and Brazil are virtually 100% Spanish where as most of the other counties are about 20% Spanish, 40% Native and 40% Mixed. Some like Chile and Paraguay have larger native populations, and others have some Africans who were brought over as slaves.

22. Centennial Of The Spanish-American War - 1898-1998 An updated and revised short history of the causes and effects of the SpanishAmerican War. http://www.zpub.com/cpp/saw.html

Text and graphic research by Lincoln Cushing. This is a work in progress dedicated to better understanding a crucial period in United States history. Background The virtual annihilation of indigenous peoples within the continental United States by the early 1900's allowed national attention to turn outward. Interest in developing markets in China and plans for a canal through Central America set the stage for a new level of expansionist strategizing. The Caribbean was a region with a strong economic relationship to the U.S., and had long been regarded by many as a natural extension of our republic. By the late 1890's American citizens owned about 50 million dollars' worth of Cuban property, primarily in the sugar, tobacco, and iron industries. Under Spanish rule in Cuba had become progressively harsh and revolution broke out in 1895. President William McKinley was under tremendous public pressure to defend U.S. interests on the island. "The media", at this point in history represented by the newspaper chains of Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst, had a field day stirring up outrage against the Spanish colonial government's many atrocities. As rebel forces gained popular support, the military resorted to moving entire villages into "reconcentration" sites and erecting massive cleared and fenced demilitarized zones.

The United States declared war against Spain in what was called the Spanish American war - John Hay called it that "splendid little war". When Spain surrendered its remaining possessions in the Western hemisphere to the United States, the young nation joined the European powers as an imperialist nation. It acquired Cuba , Puerto Rico, the Philippine Islands , and the Carolina, Marshall, and Mariana Islands (including Guam) in Micronesia.

Eight days after the legislature convened, American forces invaded Puerto Rico, and the short period of autonomy ended abruptly. During the Spanish-American War, U.S. troops landed at Guanica, on the southern coast of Puerto Rico. No serious fighting occurred on the island, and the war was over a few weeks later. Under the 1898 Treaty of Paris that ended the war, Spain ceded Puerto Rico to the United States. The United States set up a military government for Puerto Rico, while the U.S. Congress was given authority for determining the future status of Puerto Rico. search this website :: site map privacy legal

you are here home Asia Philippines History ... The Spanish-American War History, The Spanish-American War In April 1898 war broke out between Spain and the United States over their competing imperialist interests in Cuba, then also a Spanish colony where an independence movement was taking place. In May U.S. Commodore (later Admiral) George Dewey commanded the Asiatic Squadron into Manila Bay, where it easily destroyed the antiquated Spanish fleet at anchor there. Lacking adequate ground troops, however, Dewey sent for Aguinaldo in Hong Kong and encouraged him to reactivate his rebel forces. Aguinaldo believed the United States would help Filipinos achieve independence. He organized a revolutionary government that issued a declaration of independence on June 12, and his forces surrounded the Spanish garrison at Manila. By that time, Manila had become the focus of the Spanish-American War. Negotiations between U.S. military commanders and the Spanish governor resulted in a secret agreement to end the conflict in a mock battle, staged in August, in which Spanish forces surrendered control of Manila. The arrangement specifically excluded the Filipino nationalists. Aguinaldo had meanwhile established a capital at the Luzon city of Malolos, and in September his government convened a constituent assembly to draft a constitution. Peace negotiations between Spain and the United States began in late September. By the Treaty of Paris, signed in December, Spain ceded the Philippines and other territories to the United States. In return, the United States gave Spain $20 million. United States president William McKinley then issued a proclamation declaring U.S. policy to be one of “benevolent assimilation.”

33. Mosquito Control Mosquito control can be achieved using a biological environmentally safe bacteria that kills only mosquito larvae or an I.G.R. (insect growth regulator.) http://www.scapest.com/mosquito-control.html

Mosquito Control Mosquito control can be achieved using a biological environmentally safe bacteria that kills only mosquito larvae or an I.G.R. (insect growth regulator.) The best time to control mosquitosl is before they become adults. Through careful inspection of breeding sites and timely applications of a larvicide you can achieve up to ninety percent control. Mosquitoes are, however, able to fly up to a mile in search of blood. It is therefore imperative in a successful control program to be able to have access to all potential breeding sites in a given area. Used on your property, Altosid or Mosquito Dunks will stop mosquitos from breeding and combined with an adulticide or mosquitoe machine give you excellent control. See our mosquito product page. Fogging will actually kill the adult insects eand there are various brands of concentrate, usually pyrethrum, available for fogging. Mosquito machines are also a means of killing the adults. These machines lure the pests to their device which then eliminates them. For those of you who have ponds on your property there are special fish available for purchase through various agricultural departments and fish hatcheries. They are called the Gambusia. They grow 50 mm long and eat an enormous number of larvae. They are used throughout Florida, released by state and county commissions. For more information e-mail me at

The Spanish - American War The United States' Entry to World Power Status LINKS Hampton Roads Military History Books on the Spanish-American War Military History Periodicals Virginia State History ... American Local History Network Topic Page The Spanish-American War (SAW) was one of the five most important foreign wars in US history. In the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812, the American States achieved, and then defended, their independence. In the Mexican-American War, the United States established its Continental dominance. In World War II, the US halted the most violent and destructive ideology to date, and established itself as the clear leader of the free world. In the Spanish-American War, the US laid the foundation for its leadership role in WW II (and WW I), the Cold War, and beyond. It was the SAW which provided international recognition of the US as a great power. At the same time, the SAW had two major impacts within the US. One the one hand, it made Americans aware of a greater world around them, and of the need for the US to play its part. By defeating Spain hands down (after much speculation concerning the size and might of Spain's armed forces) Americans also gained self confidence in the ability of the US to project power abroad. On the other hand, the SAW was promoted largely as a "crusade" against an evil regime – much like both World Wars, like Korea and Vietnam, and like the ongoing war against terrorism. Unlike previous American conflicts which were largely fought for practical reasons – defeating Indian raiders, opening up new territories for settlements, acquiring resource-rich lands – the SAW was ostensibly fought for two reasons: liberating the oppressed people of Cuba from what was perceived as the Spanish whip (Spain played into US hands by establishing concentration camps and a brutally repressive regime to deal with local independence movements) and exacting revenge for the bombing of the Maine (attributed at the time to Spanish agents).
