How did the war end, and what were the terms agreed upon at the peace conference in Paris in 1898

Treaty of Paris, (1898), treaty concluding the Spanish-American War. It was signed by representatives of Spain and the United States in Paris on Dec. 10, 1898.


Armistice negotiations conducted in Washington, D.C., ended with the signing of a protocol on Aug. 12, 1898, which, besides ending hostilities, provided that a peace conference be held in Paris by October, that Spain relinquish Cuba and cede Puerto Rico and one of the Mariana Islands to the United States, and that the United States hold Manila until the disposition of the Philippines had been determined.


By the time that the conference opened on October 1, U.S. President William McKinley had finally decided that the United States must take possession of the Philippines. The demand was ultimately accepted with great reluctance by Spain, with the stipulation that the United States should pay Spain $20 million nominally for public buildings and public works in the Philippines. The final treaty also forced Spain to cede all claim to Cuba and to agree to assume the liability for the Cuban debt, estimated at $400 million. As indemnity, Spain ceded Puerto Rico and Guam (in the Marianas) to the United States. (An attempt by the U.S. commissioners to secure Kosrae in the Caroline Islands was successfully blocked by Germany, which had already initiated purchase of the islands.)


The treaty was vigorously opposed in the U.S. Senate as inaugurating a policy of “imperialism” in the Philippines and was approved on Feb. 6, 1899, by only a single vote. Two days earlier, hostilities had begun at Manila between U.S. troops and insurgents led by Emilio Aguinaldo. For more than three years the Filipinos carried on guerrilla warfare against U.S. rule.

The great compromise resolved the differences that large and small states had about which of the following major concerns
Phoenix [80]
The Great Compromise was a compromise between the New Jersey Plan and the Virginia Plan.

The New Jersey Plan, basically, was for each state to get an equal vote in Congress, while the Virginia Plan, again, briefly, was for each state to get a vote proportional to the amount of citizens living in their state.

The Great Compromise solved the concerns that the large and small states had, of not getting enough power in Congress. They compromised, and created the House of Representatives, following the Virginia Plan, and created the Senate, which is above the House of Representatives, following the New Jersey Plan.
