Spanish-American War for Cuba's Independence

By the end of the nineteenth century, Spain lost all the new world colonies except Cuba and Puerto Rico. Many Cubans do not want to be dominated by Spain, so they fled to Florida and the rest of the United States. But at the same time they are still faithful to Cuba. Cuban writer Hosemarty, who lives in New York, came to Tampa to get supporters to help Cuba fight for independence from Spain. Jose Marti was the leader of the revolution, but when he returned to Cuba to participate in the revolution he was killed. Tomas Estrada Palma became a new leader, later became the president of Cuba.

Cuba is interested in Cuban independence. US companies in Cuba have invested millions of dollars and many American citizens live there. America also dealt with Cuba

In 1898, the United States helped protect civilians and businesses in Cuba during the war. This war is known as the Spanish-American war. On February 15, 1898, the American warship main exploded and sunk when visiting Cuba, America declared war with Spain. Nobody really knows the cause of a warship explosion, but the United States accuses Spain. Thousands of US forces are fighting in Cuba. Tampa, Jacksonville, Fernandina, Lakeland, Pensacola, Key West, Miami are used as US military military bases.

Most of the battle was done in Cuba, but the first big fight was not done there. It fought half of the world around Manila's harbor. Manila is located in the Philippine Islands, which is later governed by Spain. The American fleet led by George Dewe Commodore broke the Spanish fleet there.

Theodore Roosevelt and his Rough Riders visited Cuba to fight. Rough Riders is a group of cowboys and university athletes. Theodore Roosevelt later became governor of the state of New York, later became the president of the United States.

The war ended when the Spanish - American war continued, Spain signed a peace treaty, and the United States could control Cuba, Puerto Rico, Philippine Islands, Guam. However, Cuba became an independent country, not the territory of the United States.

Cuba was once a Spanish colony, but in 1898 America broke Spain in the war between Spain and the United States, Cuba won independence. Over the next few years Cuba has become the wealthiest country in the Caribbean. After the hotel is completed, visitors will move to Cuba to enjoy the beautiful beaches and climate. Many Cubans become businessmen, teachers, doctors and lawyers. However, not all Cubans share wealth, most farmers and factory workers have low wages. Cuba also has many strict leaders who rule the dictatorship. In the 1950s, Fulgencio Batista was the leader of Cuba. During his reign, some banished him and formed an insurgent group to promote the country's change. One of the insurgent groups was led by a young lawyer named Fidel Castro. In the 1950s he tried three times to overthrow the Batista government. Through his third attempt, he acquired many supporters

The American Spanish Empire has declined to three Caribbean, Cuba and Puerto Rico. Before the last independence, Santo Domingo was under Spain's control for several years. After three independent wars in Cuba, the Spanish-American War finally robbed Spain from these islands at the end of the 19th century. The closer cooperation and solidarity concept between Spain and the United States was first proposed by the liber Simon Bolivar who proposed the establishment of the United States of America, Common Army, Joint Defense Arrangements and Supreme National Congress in 1826 . Participants attended the delegation of the Grand Columbia (including contemporary Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Venezuela), Peru, the Central American Allied States (Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica), and Mexico.
