The ¨Splendid Little War¨ was a term used by John Hay referring to the Spanish-American war (1898).
He called the event that way basically for all the positive results the US had after the conflict.
Based on national reports it was a short, cheap (money and lives), and the most important part, it was a really popular war, that allowed the US to start to be considered as a world power, between all the nations of the globe.
