Question

Which best describes the philippine-american war?

Answer 1

The answer is option C:  this was a war seen by the Filipinos as a continuation of their independence while it was seen by the American government as an insurrection.

The armed conflict between The USA and the First Philippine Republic took place in 1899. It began when the latter refused to consent to the Treaty of Paris, in which the Kingdom of Spain renounced to the domain of the Philippines in favor of The United States.

For the Filipinos, the war extended from the military fight against the Kingdom of Spain that started in 1896, whereas the Americans considered it a refusal of obedience.
