Explanation:
With their reporting, the newspapers of the era - there was no radio, no TV or internet - played a fundamental role in molding the mood of public opinion, thus creating pressure on the government to act; they also stirred sympathy for the Cuban rebellion, and with their coverage of the Maine warship incident, they inflamed the feelings of the public. So, the print media actively influenced policies related to the war.
Answer:
Slavery played the central role during the American Civil War. The primary catalyst for secession was slavery, especially Southern political leaders' resistance to attempts by Northern antislavery political forces to block the expansion of slavery into the western territories.
When Spaniards like Columbus, Cortes, and Pizzaro arrived in the "New World," at first their relations with native peoples were rather friendly. There were efforts to associate and negotiate with them. But the Spanish conquistadors ("conquerors") were always in a mindset of superiority and domination over the natives they encountered. If they sought the natives' trust, it was mainly so they could establish a relationship in which they, the Spanish, gained the upper hand. They looked upon the natives as a lesser sort of people and upon themselves as the bringers of proper civilization.
As Spanish efforts continued, they became more aggressive in their desire to gain wealth (gold or whatever other products they could exchange for such wealth). They enslaved natives and went to war with native tribes and nations.
Ultimately, the biggest way that the Europeans brought harm to the native populations, though, was in a way they didn't intend or understand. They brought with them germs and viruses from their continent that hadn't been known on the American continents, and so many natives became gravely ill and died. I've seen some estimates that say that smallpox killed up to 75% of the people in the Inca empire (in Peru) before the epidemics of that disease ran their course.
