Answer:

The right choice is:

C-Sinking of the uss maine, delome letter, desire for raw materials.

Explanation:

The American "yellow press" had been building public opinion support for an intervention by publishing shocking and alarming stories about the abuses and cruel treatment of the Cuban population by the Spanish authorities (which were true, an independence war was being fought in 1898 on the island). Worried about important American investments, the government sent the USS Maine to Havanna to protect them and US citizens. In a very dark incident, it blew off in the Havanna harbor.

US businesses had gone global. There was already an industrialized economy that demanded more raw materials and new markets for expansion.

All of these are reasons for the US getting involvement in the Spanish-American War.

What was one major outcome of the North winning the U.S. Civil War?
Strike441 [17]

One of the major outcomes of the North winning the U.S. Civil War was the abolition of Slavery.

After the war broke out, through a legal maneuver the Union general Benjamin Butler, stated that any slave who came into "Union possession" were considered contraband of war, and because of this, they were not subject to be returned to their original  owners, the Confederates. And as a result the word was spread and soon many slaves sought refuge in the Union territory in order to be declared as "contraband".

Later general Butler's interpretation was reinforced by the Confiscation Act of 1861, which stated that any Confederate military's property, including slaves, could be confiscated by Union forces.

And finally, due to the Emancipation Proclamation issued on January 1st, 1863, in a single stroke over 3 million slaves in designated areas of the Confederacy changed their legal status and were recognized by the U.S. government as free people.
