How did american business owners cause the spanish american war

History
2 answers:
babunello [35]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

American businesses had important investments and interests in Cuba in the end of the 19th century. Americans had invested nearly $50 million in the sugar industry, and annual trade was almost the double of that amount. Besides, out of security concerns, influential circles had advocated the purchase of Cuba.

Explanation:

The main role in agitating the American public opinion was played by the barons of American press William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer. They ran sensational papers,  which published stories about the Cuban independence war and the battles against the Spanish troops. Beside warning about the consequences for American trade interests and the safety of US citizens, the papers also reported on the terrible abuses of Spanish concentration camps for the Cuban population. This caused a wave of sympathy  for the Cuban freedom effort. The US declared war on Spain and it was fought for several months in 1898. The US took the territories of former Spanish possessions Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam and the Philippines.

What was done to reform society in deaf and blind people/children
Scilla [17]

Answer:

In the nineteenth century, in an era known as the Second Great Awakening, philanthropic and charitable efforts grew across the United States. Part of this humanitarian effort focused on educating disabled people. Construction of boarding schools and institutions for deaf and blind students slowly spread across the country and children once considered uneducable now received formal instruction. Nevertheless, the education of deaf and blind people was controversial. Many questioned the influences of public and private funding on the schools as well as the practice of committing children to an institution at a young age, when meant removing them from their families. Varying teaching strategies for deaf and blind children were also debated.

What is a difference between oil and flour?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

difference

Explanation:

Calling for a "well greased/oiled bowl" is incorrect to me.   Using a small amount of oil as lubrication is a good idea, as it stops the dough sticking to the bowl, and it conditions the dough as well.   Adding flour is something many of us try to avoid at this stage, as it just dries up the dough.   Jeff's call to keep the dough covered is important to this end too.

What is your definition of masculinity? How has your present-day definition of this word been informed? Have you actively challe
Sloan [31]

This is a really interesting question and I would love to answer it but especially in society today just think super hard at what you perceive as masculine. To me (you can use this) I picture masculinity as strong and fierce mostly because that's just how I grew up and masculine means muscular and strong. Present-day definition wise of the word, I have no idea tbh. I guess it has though because mostly everything says masculinity is strong while feminent traits are normally shown as weak in media. For the last question, I would just answer it the best you can because the last one is really up to you.
