2. What is the historical significance of the Ostend Manifesto in terms of American interest in Cuba and the Spanish-American Wa
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Explained Below

Explanation:

The Ostend Manifesto or the Ostend Circular was the change in American Foreign Policy that justified the use of power to annex Cuba from the Spanish Colonization. The Manifesto was first written in 1854. It provided the reasons for United States to declare a war on Spain to safeguard its national security if they do not give upon Cuba. The event further lead to American Spanish War of 1898 that gave America complete hold on Cuba.

There were many reasons for America's intervention into the Spanish territory. It began from the prevalence of slavery in Cuba as it provided a territory to expand slavery.  

Cuba was of special importance for America as their economic and political interests were fully utilized from the region. Its major economy was based on sugar plantation. Cuba enjoyed a strategic geographical location that could aid in America's dominance in the Caribbean region. Cuba was an ideal location to strengthen America's position as well as its sociopolitical pursuits.

What is the Sugar Act i have no idea help
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Sugar Act, also called Plantation Act or Revenue Act, (1764), in U.S. colonial history, British legislation aimed at ending the smuggling trade in sugar and molasses from the French and Dutch West Indies and at providing increased revenues to fund enlarged British Empire responsibilities following the French and Indian War. Actually a reinvigoration of the largely ineffective Molasses Act of 1733, the Sugar Act provided for strong customs enforcement of the duties on refined sugar and molasses imported into the colonies from non-British Caribbean sources.

Protests had been received from America against the enforcement of the Molasses Act, together with a plea that the duty be set at one penny per gallon. Although warnings were issued that the traffic could bear no more than that, the government of Prime Minister George Grenville refused to listen and placed a three-penny duty upon foreign molasses in the act (the preamble of which bluntly declared that its purpose was to raise money for military expenses). The act thus granted a virtual monopoly of the American market to British West Indies sugarcane planters. Early colonial protests at these duties were ended when the tax was lowered two years later.

The protected price of British sugar actually benefited New England distillers, though they did not appreciate it. More objectionable to the colonists were the stricter bonding regulations for shipmasters, whose cargoes were subject to seizure and confiscation by British customs commissioners and who were placed under the authority of the Vice-Admiralty Court in distant Nova Scotia if they violated the trade rules or failed to pay duties. As a result of the Sugar Act, the earlier clandestine trade in foreign sugar and, thus, much colonial maritime commerce were severely hampered.
