The setting-up of a base at Guantanamo Bay. This happened after the war. The U.S. obtain Guam, the Philippines and

The government created the Department of Homeland Security in 2002.
Americans were worried about terrorism in general during this time due to the attacks on the twin towers on September 11, 2001. This attack on American soil shook America's foundation and caused an increased amount of fear. The citizens looked to the government to increase security/investigations to ensure that this did not happen again. Hence the creation of the Department of Homeland Security.
This government agency is focused on several different categories. This includes: cyber security/cyber terrorism, border safety, anti-terrorism (aka terrorism prevention), and disaster prevention. This agency still exists today and plays a huge role in preventing attacks on American soil.
In general, the native Indian languages in Latin America were able to survive. This was because the colonial governments were not forbidding the native languages and were not punishing the people for using them. Instead, the politics was, that the language of the colonists is a must-known language for everyday communication between the different people, but they can use their own languages in the communication between themselves and at home. This is why the countries in Latin America nowadays have multiple official languages, most of which are native Indian languages.
