How did the United States gain sovereignty over Puerto Rico?

History
1 answer:
hram777 [196]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

<u>A By forcing Spain to cede Puerto Rico after the Spanish-American War </u>

Explanation:

On November 25, 1897, the Government of Madrid recognized the autonomy of the island, whereby Puerto Rico ceased to exist as a colony. Instead, it became the overseas autonomous province of Spain exactly on par with other Spanish provinces. The Puerto Ricans thus became Spanish nationals and allowed Puerto Rico to have full representation before the Spanish courts in Madrid. The following year, Spain was forced to cede the island to the United States after its defeat in the Spanish-American War.

What does Mary Wollstonecraft credit for the inferior treatment of women?
Art [367]

The answer is:  Society, women, government

Wollstonecraft believed that the society has imposed a strong gender roles that put women's value beneath the Men's. Making it impossible for women to compete in the professional field and advance.

She also put some of the blame to women at that era, who simply sit idle and accept the mistreatment given to them, and to the government who did not intervene with the situation through legal methods.
