Answer:
Causes of The Mexico American war.
Explanation:
In 1836, Texas gained independence from Mexico.The United States initially declined to integrate it into the union, mainly because northern political interests were resistant to a new slave state being created. Furthermore, the Mexican government sponsored border raids and threatened that any effort to invade would lead to war.
On April 25, 1846, under General Zachary Taylor's orders, Mexican cavalry attacked a group of U.S. soldiers in the disputed area, killing around a dozen. They then laid siege along the Rio Grande to an American fort. Taylor called for reinforcements and was able to defeat the Mexicans in the battles of Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma with the aid of superior arms and cannons.

Spanish-American War Begins
The ensuing war was pathetically one-sided, since Spain had readied neither its army nor its navy for a distant war with the formidable power of the United States.
In the early morning hours of May 1, 1898, Commodore George Dewey led a U.S. naval squadron into Manila Bay in the Philippines. He destroyed the anchored Spanish fleet in two hours before pausing the Battle of Manila Bay to order his crew a second breakfast. In total, fewer than 10 American seamen were lost, while Spanish losses were estimated at over 370. Manila itself was occupied by U.S. troops by August.
The elusive Spanish Caribbean fleet under Adm. Pascual Cervera was located in Santiago harbor in Cuba by U.S. reconnaissance. An army of regular troops and volunteers under Gen. William Shafter (including then-secretary of the Navy Theodore Roosevelt and his 1st Volunteer Cavalry, the “Rough Riders”) landed on the coast east of Santiago and slowly advanced on the city in an effort to force Cervera’s fleet out of the harbor.
Cervera led his squadron out of Santiago on July 3 and tried to escape westward along the coast. In the ensuing battle all of his ships came under heavy fire from U.S. guns and were beached in a burning or sinking condition.
Santiago surrendered to Shafter on July 17, thus effectively ending the brief but momentous war.

America fought the revolution to break free from imperial rule under Britain, so it wouldn't be right (It would be completely hypocritical) if America were to convert to be an imperial rule over someone else, being the Philippines.
