After the united states bought the Philippians archipelago from the Spanish in a sum of 20 million dollars, the US occupation of the Philippines has been significant for molding the nation towards its independence. One of its major proponents is American leaders like Roosevelt and Twain who granted the Philippine Islands sovereignty.

Roosevelt thought that the U.S. was helping the Philippines by bringing democracy and American industry to a nation that otherwise, Roosevelt thought, would suffer. Twain disagreed and wanted America to stay out of the Philippines, he thought they have the ablitiy to figure out their own problem and thrive without American Influence.
