What was one effect of the Spanish-American War?

1 answer:

5 0

The only correct answer is the first statement, A. This war is considered by most historians as the entry of the United States in the age of New Imperialism.

New Imperialism is how historians call several European and other nations like the U.S. colonizing territories throughout the world to get access to more consumer markets and source materials.

The Spanish-American war is better classified as the Spanish-American-Cuban-Filipino War. This way we don't lose sight of all the interests and nations that were involved.

After the war of 1898, the U.S. had new territories that would support new areas of commerce. Hawaii, for example, was annexed in this context and served to protect American ships that started to continuously pass by. Puerto Rico and Cuba gave access to Latin America markets. Hawaii, Guam, and Philippines opened access to China.

Even so, between 1900 and 1950, community leaders in many Southern cities protested segregation. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the leading civil rights organization of this era, battled racism by lobbying for federal anti-lynching legislation and challenging segregation laws in court.

o-na [289]

The one reason that the Constitutional Convention decided they needed a document to replace the Articles of Confederation, because the articles outlined an outdated tax system.

Option A

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The Article of Confederation was replaced because it had many loophole and weaknesses which majorly exploited the Constitution while giving power to the state; more power than the federal government. The Article of Confederation was replaced in 1789 because there was a need for a strong Federal government.

The article was meant to preserve the sovereignty and independence of states. However, during the ratification, it was established that nothing had changed politically since enforcing the Article and even after ratification, things remained the same. It was replaced to strengthen the national government.

Irina18 [472]

Munich massacre, Palestinian terrorist attack on Israeli Olympic team members at the 1972 Summer Games in Munich.

The Munich Games marked the first return of the Olympics to a German city since the 1936 Games in Berlin. Adolf Hitler’s use of those Games as a platform for the propagation of Nazi ideology was roundly criticized, as was the blatant racism and anti-Semitism that characterized the Games. The West German invitation had been extended, in part at least, to offer the world a contrast to the horrifying spectacle of Berlin.
