The most famous of all the units fighting in Cuba, the "Rough Riders" was the name given to the First U.S. Volunteer Cavalry under the leadership of Theodore Roosevelt. Roosevelt resigned his position as Assistant Secretary of the Navy in May 1898 to join the volunteer cavalry. The original plan for this unit called for filling it with men from the Indian Territory, New Mexico, Arizona, and Oklahoma. However, once Roosevelt joined the group, it quickly became the place for a mix of troops ranging from Ivy League athletes to glee-club singers to Texas Rangers and Indians.

Roosevelt and the commander of the unit Colonel Leonard Wood trained and supplied the men so well at their camp in San Antonio, Texas, that the Rough Riders was allowed into the action, unlike many other volunteer companies. They went to Tampa at the end of May and sailed for Santiago de Cuba on June 13. There they joined the Fifth Corps, another highly trained, well supplied, and enthusiastic group consisting of excellent soldiers from the regular army and volunteers.
The Rough Riders saw battle at Las Guásimas when General Samuel B. M. Young was ordered to attack at this village, three miles north of Siboney on the way to Santiago. Although it was not important to the outcome of the war, news of the action quickly made the papers. They also made headlines for their role in the Battle of San Juan Hill, which became the stuff of legend thanks to Roosevelt's writing ability and reenactments filmed long after.
It was also known as a Proxy War because it was just a proxy for Nazis to fight the Soviets without being directly involved in a fight against each other. The locals just called it the War or the Civil War because they were Spanish so they didn't call themselves as the Spanish Civil War.

Hello!
Hitler's goal was to establish a New Order based on the absolute hegemony of Nazi Germany on the European continent. Its foreign and domestic policy had the objective of seizing Lebensraum ('vital space') for the Germanic peoples. It promoted the rearmament of Germany, for which Hitler pressed Austria for unification with Germany and this was followed by the intensification of the Sudeten crisis, in the German-speaking area of Czechoslovakia known as Sudetenland; This led to the Munich Agreement of September 1938, which authorized the annexation and immediate military occupation of these districts by Germany. Under these plans it could be said that the Nazi party has acted by attacking and occupying other territories. Hitler believed that Nazi Germany should demonstrate its superiority, which is why it had to fight to establish its hegemonic power in Europe.
I hope this helps!
